lyrics

I remember when I was younger, my daddy taught me hunt for food not sport.

Now I’m older, his words stick with me in the desert, where I am hungry.

Modern living has left me starving.

Beneath the buildings, I started laughing.

I started walking. The sun was smiling.

Now it’s scowling, the wind is howling.

The hills are my home, the fire my wife.

My story the miles, the kill is my life.

The hills are my home, the fire my wife.

The dirt is in my blood, my will is the knife.

It’s enough to make a sane man go mad.

For some reason, what I previewed and the real songs was somewhat different - maybe because of the cover art? But I definitely don't regret something more spacial than expected. The recent Ocean drifting in space. frankwurst
