AMON AMARTH
- Live For The Kill Lyrics / with translationsThe pack of wolves
Are closing in
Now, hear the howling beasts
They move fast
Through the winter woods
And soon it's time to feast
A vicious hunt
On through the night
The prey is short of breath
They feel the sting
Of burning eyes
That's fixed upon their necks
A predator's heart
Knows no remorse
It lives for the hunt
A predator's heart
Knows no remorse
It lives for the hunt
A natural force
They show their sharp
And grinning teeth
As howls are getting higher
Sending chills
Down fleeing spines
Their blood runs hot as fire
The vicious chase
Is soon at end
They're hunted until death
They feel the pain
Of sharpened steel
That's cutting through their flesh
Fearless warriors
Feed the wolves
Now hear the howling beasts
They move fast
Through winter woods
See the Gray-Backs feast
(Solo: Johan)
(Apocalyptica strings)
A natural force
It knows no remorse
And lives for the kill
Are closing in
Now, hear the howling beasts
They move fast
Through the winter woods
And soon it's time to feast
A vicious hunt
On through the night
The prey is short of breath
They feel the sting
Of burning eyes
That's fixed upon their necks
A predator's heart
Knows no remorse
It lives for the hunt
A predator's heart
Knows no remorse
It lives for the hunt
A natural force
They show their sharp
And grinning teeth
As howls are getting higher
Down fleeing spines
Their blood runs hot as fire
The vicious chase
Is soon at end
They're hunted until death
They feel the pain
Of sharpened steel
That's cutting through their flesh
Fearless warriors
Feed the wolves
Now hear the howling beasts
They move fast
Through winter woods
See the Gray-Backs feast
(Solo: Johan)
(Apocalyptica strings)
A natural force
It knows no remorse
And lives for the kill

The lyrics make it clear that a very fierce and blunt method is being used to get what one wants and compare it with the wild animals' behavior where it is all about instinct and ruthlessness. Live for the kill lyrics give the most weight to angst, nature, despair, anger, and adventure. Besides, the song also talks about the contradictions of predation vs. survival and fear vs. death.
