For Life And Liberty

The four hooves echo in the night
Pictures of deepest fear reflect in your eyes
Like a fire in your soul
Burst through the forest of the wild
The full moon beholds from it’s starlit sky
This journey without goal
The hunt twists and turns
Winding through the dark
The flame of intensity burns
Higher and higher and higher
The hooves are pounding in the dark
Splitting the silence of the night
Do you smell the cruel desire?
Your paws are pounding with your heart
Pounding for life and liberty
As the steam is rising higher
Inside the forest oh so deep
The creatures of the night watch intensively
This hunt that flashes them by
Will you escape or will you bleed?
The hunter’s at your tail, he calls for victory
With hunger in his eyes
As the welkin embraces his stars
To a shimmering nightly play
The arch-enemy of man
Is once more prey
