The Wolf

from The Wolf EP by On Wings Of Hope

lyrics

The sheep amongst the wolves/
Oh, how it covers its tracks/

Longing for/
Something real/
Without judgement by the rest/
Friends means friends until the end/
Holding the record for the most ship wrecks/

Twist & pull yourself against the truth/
For in the end the effort was all for nothing/

So what's to say?/
You'd give them your love then walk away/
Creep back into the pack in which you’re entrapped by your insecurities/
Life has become a blur/
Pinned down on your hands & knees at its mercy/
These are your true friends/
But disgusted by such absurdity/

Engage your heart & mind/
For you to make the connection/
Within yourself/
What's to conceal if there were no tomorrow?/

Chorus:
Divulge sincerity/
(Speak the truth before you are gone/)
Indulge true family/
(Yield to the kindred; a lifelong bond/)

As the words knit/
They don’t mean shit/
The world that’s longed for may soon exist/
[Cause] Who’ll be next to you?/
[In the] Year 3002/
When you deceive, you deceive; what’s to believe?/

The sheep amongst the wolves/
Oh, how it covers its tracks/

So cash in the acting and the tricks used upon yourself/
Set fire to the past; live with no shame nor with a guilty conscience/
Or will you try to keep calm and carry on in this misfortune?/
[Either way] The other lives will stay strong as you live on with self-distortion/

Chorus:
Divulge sincerity/
(Speak the truth before you are gone/)
Indulge true family/
(Yield to the kindred; a lifelong bond/)
Remove yourself out of your own way/
Don’t stray from the kin; there will be no betrayal/
No, no, no/
Don’t throw them away/
Don’t throw you away/

The sheep amongst the wolves/
Oh, how it covers its tracks/
You can fool them, but you can(’t) not fool me/
You are no wolf; you are weak/
A heart of gold for you to the tenth degree/
This was our last ship set out to sea/
