In a dark woods paved with snow living all alone
I forgot long ago what I'm looking for
Firecracker lightning seed coming back to me
This is how
You made my heart a hunter
I remember my little seed louder than a dream
I let my golden arrow fly to the bottom of the night
No hounds to guide me no army at my back
I'm gonna stand up
Firecracker lightning seed coming closer to me
This is how
You made my heart a hunter
Sunrise burns my fortress down crumbling to the ground
I found my arrow my lightning spark buried in my heart
No hounds to guide me no army at my back
I'm gonna stand up
Firecracker lightning seed it was always in me
This is how
You made my heart a hunter
I forgot long ago what I'm looking for
Firecracker lightning seed coming back to me
This is how
You made my heart a hunter
I remember my little seed louder than a dream
I let my golden arrow fly to the bottom of the night
No hounds to guide me no army at my back
I'm gonna stand up
Firecracker lightning seed coming closer to me
This is how
You made my heart a hunter
Sunrise burns my fortress down crumbling to the ground
I found my arrow my lightning spark buried in my heart
No hounds to guide me no army at my back
I'm gonna stand up
Firecracker lightning seed it was always in me
This is how
You made my heart a hunter

Didn't intend to be quite so cryptic, as I realise that was. It was more of a gut-reaction than a thorough response. I'd be happy to point to individual elements of the song which bring this interpretation to me. As it's a very personal experience, (the song, and the interpretation it conjures) it's rather second-nature to me now.
I disagree, however, with a romantic origin. Could be. But, similar to how amygims stated, it seems a deep betrayal at a younger age. How what would've been an open, gentle and receptive heart became a 'hunter': watchful, vigilant, and predatory.
