Purple Prose - The Heart Hunts Alone lyrics

<b>The Heart Hunts Alone</b> by <i>Purple Prose</i><br />Het met her by the water

like blood her lips

sweet and red

There was snow on the fields

Bare black trees, skies of lead

and he knew he'd never forget her

The sly tilt of her head

every glance like a chorus

from heaven

As they walked in silence

from the life they had let

The heart hunts alone

in a hood of stone

As hope bides its time

Waiting and blind

for the next crime

Some blows go beyond hurt

The things that she said

flaunting like a flag

her indifference

the world won't stop laughing

and it's crushing his head

the visions he fed

in the ice of his bed

Now the snow looks the same

but the day, sparks and flames

and her lips, her lips taste so dead
