Hunter of Invisible Game

I hauled myself up out of a ditch

I built me an ark of gopher wood and pitch

Sat down by the roadside and waited on the rain

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game

Well, I woke last night to the heavy clickin' and clack

And a scarecrow on fire on the railroad tracks

There were empty cities and burning plains

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game

We all come up a little short, and we go down hard

These days, I spend my time skippin' through the dark

Through the empires of dust I chant your name

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game

Through the bone yard, rattled and black smoke, we rolled on

Down into the valley where the beast has his throne

I sing my song, and I sharpen my blade

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game

Strength is vanity, and time is illusion

I feel you breathin', the rest is confusion

Your skin touches mine, what else to explain?

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game

Now pray for yourself and that you may not fall

When the hour of deliverance comes on us all

When our hope and faith, and courage, and trust

Can rise or vanish like dust into dust

Now there's a kingdom of love waitin' to be reclaimed

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game

Honey, I'm the hunter of invisible game
