The Hunt
Atrocity Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sinful I have taken life by life mortality a gift you have to make
Blood and sweat is the nourishment bloody victim the hunt is your painful end
Nervously your skin is turning wet merciless I stab you in the back
Steel of sword is reaching tender flesh lustfully I cut your head from neck
Panic,butcher bleeding for my need
Never enter my hunting ground 'cause I get you and I smash you down
I cut you,slash you till your death I slice your heart and steal your breath
The hunt is on! Manhunt is on!

I slaughter you,I slice your throat apart I punish you,your neverresting soul
Gruesome,black and obscure night entirely I have given death's delight
Panic,butcher bleeding for my need

You and me - the chosen ones
The hunt is on!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Atrocity's "The Hunt" present a dark and sinister portrayal of a hunt. The singer describes themselves as sinful, taking life by life, emphasizing the mortality of the victims and how it is a gift one must make. Blood and sweat are presented as the nourishment, and the bloody victim is presented as the painful end to the hunt. The singer describes themselves as merciless and lustful, stabbing their victim in the back with a sword and cutting off their head from the neck. Panic and butchering are also mentioned, showcasing the brutality of the hunt. In the chorus, the tone becomes more threatening, with the singer warning others to never enter their hunting ground or they will be smashed down, cut and slashed until death. The hunt is presented as a manhunt, with the chosen ones being the hunter (the singer) and the hunted (the victim).

Through these disturbing lyrics, the song captures the sheer brutality and violence that is often associated with hunting. The singer takes pleasure in causing pain and harming others, showing no remorse for their actions. It is a disturbing portrayal that works to highlight just how cruel and inhumane such activities can be.
