this heart of mine is hurting
as i slowly walk away
i never wanted to be a hunter
never meant to make you prey

and so i turn my face away
can't let you see my tears
can't let you know how much i care
or give away my fears

maybe it's a good time
to make a brand new start
take off for a different town
and throw away this heart

my lease is up, my bags are packed
i have nowhere to go
but the road, she calls to me
and i'll find my way, i know
