Hunter's Temper

Lyrics

[Verse]
Hunter was a man with a storm in his eyes,
Lived by the sawmills and worked 'til he cried.
Whiskey and regret, they danced through his veins,
Rage in his heart like a runaway train.

[Verse 2]
Folks in the town knew to steer clear,
Whispers of Hunter would chill you with fear.
Broken-down porch where he’d sit and drink slow,
The fuse was so short, just a spark and he'd blow.

[Chorus]
Oh, Hunter, Hunter, your temper's a flame,
Burnin' down bridges and leavin' just shame.
In the dark of the night, you let your rage roar,
Hunter, oh Hunter, what are you fightin' for?

[Verse 3]
Memories of love now scattered and torn,
His gentle side lost the day he was born.
Under the moonlight, he'd curse and he'd cry,
The man in the mirror, a ghost with no sky.

[Verse 4]
One night in November, the storm hit its peak,
A slow-dyin' fire, not a soul left to speak.
He vanished alone down a path in the wood,
Leavin' behind all the things that he could.

[Chorus]
Oh, Hunter, Hunter, your temper's a flame,
Burnin' down bridges and leavin' just shame.
In the dark of the night, you let your rage roar,
Hunter, oh Hunter, what are you fightin' for?
