Wolves Songtext
von The Barr Brothers

Hunt like a wolf, run like a river
Put your hand on the chest of a heart that is beating
You lie in debt, to a lover beholden
Trained on the paw of a singular union
Drive a hole through the mountain
Drive a car from the east to the western ocean
Back to a time when a promise was more easily broken
These were the seeds of the terrible winter
Your mother was a wolf
And she said to you
"It′s not just how you see it, but how you're gonna see it through"
"I know you want to give it up, but who are you gonna give it to?"
I′m guilty like a son
Out of the womb, into the ether
Feel the rain on your head and the tundra beneath you
A sudden blow and nobody with a body can reach you


A dog with a bone and that ought to teach you
Your mother was a wolf
And she said to you
"I know you want to give it up, but who are you gonna give it to?"
"And the love, the love that's incomplete, it's twice as bitter and half as sweet"
I′m guilty like the sun
I′m guilty like the sun
The revel in your bones, the salt in your teeth
The bating of your breath, the ring in your ears
And it's clear
You′re getting closer
To your fear
Hunt like a wolf, soon you are bleeding
Put your hand on the chest of a heart that is beating
You lie in debt, to a lover beholden
These were the seeds of the terrible winter
