Hunter Moon - Amy Speace

When I die, don’t bury me

Leave me to barren field

'Neath October’s ruins

And that hungry hunter moon

She came in late, the dress was torn

Poured a drink then turned away

Haggard lips curled to a smile

I saw the leaving on her face

When I die don’t bury me

Leave me to Judas field

'Neath October’s ruins

And that hungry hunter moon

Smell his sweat, smell his skin

I couldn’t stop, she didn’t scream

Blood spread out along her tie

Running from the sharpen steel

When I die don’t bury me

Leave me to killing field

'Neath October’s ruins

And that hungry hunter moon

On my knees before Saint Martin

The silent moons so brief and brave

A little light, the only witness

To mark my murdered lover’s grave

When I die don’t bury me

Leave me to grieving field

'Neath October’s ruins

And that hungry hunter moon

Yeah, when I die don’t bury me

Leave me to the haunted field

'Neat October’s ruins

And that hungry hunter moon

Scattered on the center stone

Little pieces of my bones

Let the crows and beetles dine

There’ll be no redemption for my kind
