Wolves

Oh how I've wronged you, my love

It’s come to another night

Filled with cold sweats

Lucid dreams in restless sleep

And, woe is me! Woe is me

For I've defanged the only wolves

That were ever on my side

I hear her voice saying

Leave it behind.

I left behind every trace of a coward

And moved towards the dreams

That were born of our fathers

Who told us the world is only

As flat as we've made it out to be

And, when the day breaks

The sun will transform us

Into something more than the lies

That become us

And, there is nothing I need more

Take aside. Tear apart

Conglomerate. Make new.

What is a wolf truly worth

Without its fangs

Who's hunted down by children

With sticks and crooked blades

And turned into a story

And a token for the few

That it slayed before it lost

The only weapons that it knew?

Oh how I've wronged you, my love

It’s come to another night

Filled with cold sweats

Lucid dreams in restless sleep
