Wolves

Lyrics

Hunt like a wolf, run like a river
 Put your hand on the chest of a heart that is beating
 You lie in debt, to a lover beholden
 Trained on the paw of a singular union
 Drive a hole through the mountain
 Drive a car from the east to the western ocean
 Back to a time when a promise was more easily broken
 These were the seeds of the terrible winter
 Your mother was a wolf
 And she said to you
 "It's not just how you see it, but how you're gonna see it through"
 "I know you want to give it up, but who are you gonna give it to?"
 I'm guilty like a son
 Out of the womb, into the ether
 Feel the rain on your head and the tundra beneath you
 A sudden blow and nobody with a body can reach you
 A dog with a bone and that ought to teach you
 Your mother was a wolf
 And she said to you
 "I know you want to give it up, but who are you gonna give it to?"
 "And the love, the love that's incomplete, it's twice as bitter and half as sweet"
 I'm guilty like the sun
 I'm guilty like the sun
 The revel in your bones, the salt in your teeth
 The bating of your breath, the ring in your ears
 And it's clear
 You're getting closer
 To your fear
 Hunt like a wolf, soon you are bleeding
 Put your hand on the chest of a heart that is beating
 You lie in debt, to a lover beholden
 These were the seeds of the terrible winter
