I hauled myself up out of the ditch

And built me an ark of gopher wood and pitch

Sat down by the roadside and waited on the rain

I am the hunter of invisible game

Well I awoke last night to the heavy clickin' and clack

And a scarecrow on fire 'long the railroad tracks

There were empty cities and burnin' plains

I am the hunter of invisible game

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

These days I spend my time skipping through the dark

Through the empires of dust, I chant your name

I am the hunter of invisible game

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

Down into the valley, where the beast has his throne

There I sing my song and I sharpen my blade

I am 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

I am the hunter of invisible game

Now pray for yourself 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

There's a kingdom of love waiting to be reclaimed

I am the hunter of invisible game

I am the hunter of invisible game

I am the hunter of invisible game
