Whistle of Death

I am always running

Away from things I do not know

The whistle of death following

I am not made for loving

He walks so slow

I am always running

Every time I am eating

I always see the same doe

The whistle of death following

I am cowering

Is this my very own death row

I am always running

The forest is so captivating

The archer shoots his bow

The whistle of death following

When will they stop fighting

They have stooped so low

I am always running

The whistle of death following
