The Huntress

She really knows herself...
She really knows herself...
She really knows herself
Through and through...

She really knows what it is...
What it really, really is...
What it really, really is
What it is that she wants...
She wants what's strong and true.

She really, really knows...
She really, really knows...
What it is that she needs...
She really knows what she needs...
She really, really  needs
What it is that she knows
That she wants.

He is the one that she sees...
That she really, really sees...
He is the one that she knows that she needs...

She wants his intellect...
She wants his strength of mind...
She shares his love of words.
She knows that he really, really IS...
That he trully, trully IS...
A Veritable One of a Kind.

And so she watches him
She tracks him down...
She sets her sights on him.
It's the shot heard round the world.
