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 |
