Lyrics
I was born from a dropped King Dick spanner on a Tuesday in the rain.
Woke up a screaming white mouth on his knuckle, a pure and sudden pain.
The air had the coppery smell of a fox's kill at dawn.
Heard a voice through the ringing, "'That's a proper bleeder, that one.'"
[Chorus]
I'm the line that the night couldn't swallow,
The grin on the bone that the winter made hollow.
I'm the silver pelt you earned in the fight.
I am the proof. I am the white.
[Verse 2]
I've seen the bottom of a hundred Sports Direct mugs since then.
Felt the tremor of the Supertram rattling over Kelham again.

[Chorus]
I'm the line that the night couldn't swallow,
The grin on the bone that the winter made hollow.
I'm the silver pelt you earned in the fight.
I am the proof. I am the white.
[Outro]
The hunt is over.
The pelt is home.
