"Going Hunting" lyrics

"Going Hunting"

In the stillness of dim lit insomnia
He discovers his own body
Whisper names in the pillowcase
It's almost like he had somebody
It's ok, I didn't want to go out tonight anyway
I stay right here

The world is out of reach
For a body under siege
By a foreign mind implanted in a being
That used to be so innocent
Is this a cell
Or my bedroom? Who can tell
What secrets lie within this boy's drawer
A reason for his punishment

If I only had a friend like you
If I only had a friend like you
If I only had a friend like you
If I only had a friend like you

What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting
What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting

The world he kept outside
Got a scent of where he hides
And the skeletons of rats inside his drawer
Are proof that no one's innocent
What is the way?
Is it mercy? Is it brave
To let the stones fall down upon the sickly
Or is it simply punishment?

If I only had a friend like you
If I only had a friend like you
If I only had a friend like you
If I only had a friend like you

What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting
What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting

Our time has come and gone so stay inside
You have to keep your secrets small
Close your eyes
I hear you whisper through the walls

What's left for you to do now?
They've come to hunt you down
What's left for you to do now?
They've come to hunt you down

What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting
What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting

What's left for you to do now?
They've come to hunt you down
What's left for you to do now?
They've come to hunt you down

What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting
What to do when no one's watching
Anything else means nothing
When the world outside comes knocking
We are going hunting
