lyrics

Everyone knows that
This is my method
Not the way I was born but
The way that I weathered
My repu
Tation precedes me
I’ll tell you
How it is, yeah if needs be

You don’t want to see these teeth
You really do not want to feel this tongue
If I were you I’d make believe
Pretend that everybody’s having fun
Cause soon the sun is gonna set
And when the moon is up that’s when I turn
Yeah there’s another me you haven’t met
The fables told but they don’t learn

Who do you think you’re talking to?

I am the wolf, I am alone and this we know and so it goes, so it goes, so it goes on
I am the wolf, I’m on the phone, I’m in your home, I’m in your bones, yes I know you are broken
You are the wolf, you play the victim, till they’re sucked in, till they’re sold, till they’re sold, till they’re sold on
He is the wolf, you let him in, encourage him, he sits and waits, as he hates yes he grows strong

I’ll wear the clothing
Of sheep if I have to
Oh but you’ll feel the loathing
If I ever catch you
Yeah we’re keeping it feel good
Oh we’re hiding our pains
But I’ll see that your red hood
Will not show up the blood stains

You don’t want to hear the truth
So don’t be asking me to tell it straight
And you don’t want to feel the tooth
Sink in to meat that you just laid on the plate
‘cause soon you’re gonna find the sun
Hidden by fog, see what you get
I’m telling you I’m not the one
I’m not your dog, I’m not your pet
