Lyrics

Wolf

Oh love, you've let me down
In the dark waters we swam until we drowned
Oh love, I cannot speak
The devil has cut out my tongue, I admit defeat

In the darkest night I hear your call
The wolf is howling at my door
I shall not let him in anymore
A fatal mistake

Oh heart, now you are cold
Cold like the stone in the river he now throws
Oh heart, you slowly beat
A funeral march of sorrowful feet

In the darkest night I hear your call
The wolf is howling at my door
I shall not let him in anymore
A fatal mistake I've made before
A fatal mistake
