The Wolf Lyrics

The commandments their were ten

Then twenty, then forty

It never ended, was never enough

Rules to live by, words to die for

Ashes to ash, and dust to dust

Open your eyes, and see through the lies

Put on this crown of thorns

Your savior is watching, so put on your disguise

Don't reveal what's underneath

I prayed to God my soul to keep

I laid it down but got no sleep

Those eyes were always watching me

And if I die before I wake

I'll know what's really been at stake

Those eyes that are always watching me

Or so I believed

The wolf kills the sheep

I threw words to the ceiling

They bounced back, and hit me

Never changed what was on my mind

I sat in the silence

Appeared as a nihilist

Couldn't understand what I did wrong

The more I spoke the more it hurt

The more I asked was more unheard

These words I knew began to burn

These words I knew a lesson to unlearn

A lesson to unlearn

I prayed to God my soul to keep

I laid it down but got no sleep

Those eyes were always watching me

And if I die before I wake

I'll know what's really been at stake

Those eyes that are always watching me

I prayed to God my soul to keep

I laid it down but got no sleep

Those eyes were always watching me

And if I die before I wake

I'll know what's really been at stake

Those eyes that are always watching me

Or so I believed

The wolf kills the sheep

The wolf kills the sheep
