Wolf At The Door by The Phoenix Lights (Formerly DreamsGoColour) Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2016

WOLF AT THE DOOR

And it's such a drag, when I'm trapped/caught between God and the devil
It's such a trap/catch, when I swallow all the stories I tell
I can't do anything, when I see you lying there beside me
And I don't really sleep, because there's a wolf outside the door
It's not a good scene, when there's a wolf there at the door

I know nothing will ever change...

The old part of me, that loves me sick, alone, and broken
Something won't click, I feel too much or nothing at all
This skin doesn't fit
Since burning all the maps
And doesn't that just go to show you
That pain just won't quit when there's a wolf there at the door
The pain doesn't quit when there's wolf here in my blood
But wolves can smell blood, and they're right outside the door

I know nothing will ever change, if I do everything the same
So I will, build a new skin
All of the rage and pain, burned away, all to become brave
I am clear, on what I fear
It makes me feel sick
Knowing he has terrorized you
All the moments he killed
Or how he'd stop your heart, with blood on his sleeves
Then you said you could never hate
A broken man, from a broken family
Just like you could never hate, a wolf for killing a dove
You saw the wolf in his blood, and that somehow turned to love
But wolves can smell love, and they're right outside the door

I know nothing will ever change, if I do everything the same
So I will, build a new skin
All of the rage and pain, burned away, all to become brave
I am clear, on what I fear

While I built a cage
To hide the spark, that still burned bright and savage
You kept us safe
Sitting on the floor, telling stories, playing games
You used a witch's eye
To ward away all dark signs and omens
And said in real time, you take the blessings as they come
Blessings as they come
But the old part of me, that loves a broken heart

The old part of me that burns the blessings as they come
The old part of me, with the wolf here in my blood
Wolves can smell love wolves can smell blood
Wolves can smell love, blessings as they come
