[Intro – whispered, distant]
(footsteps in leaves, low breathing)
Yeah…
I hear you.
[Verse 1]
Branches claw my jacket, ripping at my spine
Moonlight cuts in pieces through the crooked pines
Every snap behind me sounds too close to pray
Heartbeat doing numbers I can’t outrun away
Fog on my tongue, iron in my mouth
Every wrong turn’s screaming north, east, south
You don’t need words, you don’t make a sound
You move like hunger dragging on the ground
[Pre-Chorus – rising tension]
I feel your shadow breathing down my neck
Every step I take just places the bet
[Chorus – heavy, crushing]
HUNT ME DOWN
I can smell you in the dark
HUNT ME DOWN
Hear your teeth, hear your heart
HUNT ME DOWN
Every fear you never said
I can taste it when you run
I can taste it when you sweat
HUNT ME DOWN
[Verse 2]
Eyes in the black where the treeline bends
Something laughs but it’s not my friends
Mud on my hands, blood in my shoes
Forest don’t care which side you choose
Your breath hits cold, mine’s coming thin
I hear you smiling under your skin
Every prayer gets swallowed whole
By roots that know where bodies go
[Pre-Chorus – half-whisper / half-growl]
You trip on hope, you choke on doubt
The forest already picked you out
[Chorus – bigger, distorted]
HUNT ME DOWN
I can smell you in the dark
HUNT ME DOWN
Hear your teeth, hear your heart
HUNT ME DOWN
Every fear you never said
I can taste it when you run
I can taste it when you sweat
HUNT ME DOWN
[Bridge – phonk drop, whispered threats]
(voice layered, low and close)
Don’t stop…
That’s how I lose you…
Your panic’s loud
Your silence too
[Breakdown – screamed]
RUN
RUN
RUN
THE TREES REMEMBER EVERY STEP YOU TOOK
[Final Chorus – full aggression]
HUNT ME DOWN
You were dead before the chase
HUNT ME DOWN
I been breathing in your trace
HUNT ME DOWN
Say my name into the dirt
I can smell your fear tonight
I can smell the way you hurt
HUNT
ME
DOWN
[Outro – fading footsteps, whisper]
Found you.
