Antelope Song

I am an antelope running from the hunter's gun
Knocking the trees down and hurling through wires
I run

And if I had known better, I could have prevented this
If I had known better to leave
And you were so lost in your mind, you've accepted this
Because you didn't know where I'd be

I think my suitcase will fit in the passenger seat
But this tired little antelope is barely alive
And inside of me

But the fires will not hurt me, my skin's made of leather
Been waiting on someone to meet
And I've been trying so hard to put this back together
So tie me to you with a string

I open my eyes and I find that my hooves have been caught
A bullet in me that has found its way up to my heart

And my wounds they are growing, I'm not who I thought I was
Blood pouring from me like rain
And in the cold distance, the hunter approaches me
And he puts a gun to my head
