He will come silently
Without warning
Sly as a fox
Quick to trap you in a box
Try to be clever
Would not work ever
He sees through your plan
Following that trail without fail
Fear leaves a dirty taste in your mouth
He will come stealthy
Smiling, showing off his blood stained teeth
Thirsty for blood
Sleep is a privilege
A privilege you have not earned
He will come in a flash
Without a doubt
Hide yourself in tree
He is no fool, he knows you are there
His all seeing eye is that of the devil
Zaroff will chases his prey to the ends of the earth
What makes you think that you are an exception?
What he seeks above all is amusement
He turns on his heel and walks away
Blowing smoke your way
Waiting for the next day
Watching you from the shadows as you lay
Think. Think THINK
a plan
Yes of course! A plan!
Set the trap and wait
Work quickly don't procrastinate
He will come soon enough
The General sets off the trap
He tries to step back, but it is too late
He acknowledges you, but he will be back
He always comes back
Run you might
But it has proven pointless
It is no longer his game show it's Nature's
No way to escape
Tugging and pulling not letting go
Find a way or end up the same as them
The same as his other victims
But think. Calm down.
Whether you can or can't is up to you
A new ploy less hope
CRASH! CLATTER!
The sound of the wounded fills the air
Best beware
On your toes or you might be in his care
The fact hits hard
You have not won
Pray yet again but hope there is none
The hunter has become the hunted
Chased by a maniacal madman and his underlings
The game's end was nearing
His reign of terror will soon cease
An idea has surfaced
Move swiftly and calmly
Tie and twist quickly
Grab this grab that, oh great idea using that vine
Make sure you can survive in this dangerous game
The General will experience your agony
You run frantically into the woods
The barks get louder and louder
Like time had frozen the barking stopped
The knife had struck down the most ferocious beast of them all
Finally, finally you are able to rest as the game is finished
HE has lost and you have won
