How Tall Stands the Hunter

the great white hunter
has lost his merry 'lil way
can't see the light now

gone is the oneness
wonder how this could be real
he still stands way tall

with girls looking up
amidst deafening silence
his beliefs are real

while those around him
use them for their excuses
to be and stay pissed

his 1st time to be
alone within the whole crowd
he'll do what he must
