lyrics

A wolf stalks through the landscape he hunted in
And can’t remember where he buried the bones
So he has to go out and hunt again
Eventually he forgets he was ever a scavenger

Fear of aging. Unoriginal, right?
Even though I mean it more
Than anything else I’ve said. I feel used up
But that’s ok. Sometimes the noise fades.

There were endless mistakes. I wouldn’t start it again.
Now I know what it takes, I wouldn’t start it again.
Maybe I seem like I opened my eyes, but I’m afraid I threw up my hands
‘Cos if anyone cared, they would start it again.

There is something that I only scratched at
When I kicked & screamed at 17, I understand more
Than I ever did back then. Scratching at
Your skin for years leaves you clean, at least.

There were endless mistakes. I wouldn’t start it again.
Now I know what it takes, I wouldn’t start it again.
If the noise fades and you stop screaming, it doesn’t mean you caved in
But if I really cared, I would start it again.
