Wolves

(album: Old Time Speaker - 2010)

Thick fog
It hangs, it hangs in the air
For now, our vision impaired
We can't see far
But we can see right here

And it feels like something is coming
And we've got no time to prepare
And the woods around us are humming
With the howls of a new affair

And are we listening now?
Now you know you can't fool everyone
Because soon we'll all catch on
That the wolves are back again
You can hide or you can run
Against the grain
But as soon as the thunder comes
All the wolves are back again

We won't be afraid and won't look away
Because it's happening
We can fight it or invite to stay
And it won't be long
Before the fences are
Taller than our happy homes
And a beast still has a heart
And it beats real hard
Pumps the blood like a flood
To its open scars
And it'll bleed like you and me
To find out just what we are

And it feels like something is coming
And I'm glad its finally here
And it might be worth all becoming
Like the wolves we used to fear

And are we listening now?
Now you know you can't fool everyone
Because soon we'll all catch on
That the wolves are back again
You can hide or you can run
Against the grain
But as soon as the thunder comes
All the wolves are back again

All the wolves, all the wolves
Oh they're back, oh they're back
Oh they're back, oh they're back again
Oh, I'm gonna let it in
Oh, I'm gonna let it in
Oh, I'm gonna let it in
Oh, I'm gonna let it in

Now you no you can't fool everyone
Because soon we'll all catch on
That the wolves are back again
Oh, I'm gonna let it in
Oh, I'm gonna let it in, I am, I am, I am
Oh, I'm gonna let it in
Oh, I'm gonna let it in, I am, I am, I am
