The Wolf |
Said, «In truth I don’t really want to talk about it» |
Christmas lights dangled sadly from the table in the operating room |
Last I heard you’re an addict about it |
Full of rage and Corona |
Trying to blow the birthday kid candles out |
Trap doors and the retaliator lead out |
To the field where our extended family buried their lies |
If you’re going, bring some faith and a flashlight |
Follow signs that read |
«It's twenty miles before you finally see fire» |
(You may be paying too much for your life insurance policy) |
Now there’s something to say for the art of confusion |
I got the courage to enquire where your body traveled all of the time |
«I gotta climb out of this elevator, hadn’t move me once yet |
Do I expect that it should really start now?» |
The waitress oversees you levitating |
Couldn’t think it to words and watched your body lift up into the sky |
Everyone there was just in awe about it |
Seen a miracle and drank away the thought from our minds |
There was you and me |
And nothing in-between |
It’s right and wrong |
Goes on and on and on |
This is the wave that you could never conquer |
Losing the smallest piece of truth we used to know |
I wasn’t prepared to embark with the wolf of the mountain |
It wasn’t a place that we could call our own |
Now I don’t want to seem like it’s split at the seams |
See the pain on the wall? |
See the blood in the street? |
There is nothing you’ve got when you die that you keep |
You were all that you were, were you all you could be? |
In the blink of an eye there’s a hole in your belly |
Your body recoils ironically into the family planning aisle |
I overhear, «I don’t know where I’m going |
I’m going anyway» |
Don’t let 'em tell you that I never found… |
You and me and nothing in-between |
It’s right and wrong, goes on and on and on |
(How long you been looking for…) |
The truth for me is grasping at the seam |
So truthfully, do you want to die for me? |
This is the wave that you could never conquer |
Losing the smallest piece of truth we used to know |
I wasn’t prepared to embark with the wolf of the mountain |
It wasn’t a place that we could call our own |
