Cover art for Hunter (Bjork cover) lyrics by 30 Seconds to Mars

"If travel is searching "And home has been found

I'm not stopping"

If the point of travelling is to find something, and what is found is home..it's not enough. He's going to keep going.

"I'm going hunting I'm the hunter I'll bring back the goods But I don't know when"

He's the one who will keep searching for 'it'. He'll find it.. but he can't reassure anyone when he will.

"I thought I could organize freedom How American of me This is soon You figured it out, didn't you?"

Reflecting on being left to do things on his own. "How american of me." I love that line, and his exexution of it.

"You could smell it So you left me on my own To complete the mission Now I'm leaving it all behind."

He's been abandoned, and will abandon them now.

"I'm going hunting I'm the hunter I'm the hunter I'm the hunter

You just didn't know me...."

Declaring he is the hunter and will not give up, and that they don't know him to think he would.

That's what I got out of it. Reminds me of Final Fantasy 7, if anyones played it. The Ancients, or Centra, were the first race on the planet, and were supposed to find the "Promised land" and some of them stopped and found homes elsewhere, but others kept going to find what had been promised to them.

Or maybe I'm a gamergeek, but I love the song.
