The Wolf Is Loose

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Brent Hinds] The hero of the gods The crossing of the threshold The belly of the whale Refusal of return [Verse 2: Troy Sanders] Hollow eyes Dry, pale legs Howling on Through fields and graves [Verse 3: Brent Hinds] Language of the sign Symbols to our sight Guardian to thy throne Take on form [Verse 4: Troy Sanders] Daylight Hide the skin Cut it off Scatter ash in the wind [Bridge 1: Troy Sanders and Brent Hinds] Shapeshifters rolling on winds of tyrants make Fierce lore of fanged horn, danger all the way Night's sea reflection, the faces of bodies slain Return to form of natural human's fate [Instrumental Break] [Bridge 2: Troy Sanders] Grown from the cold Spirits unclean Dealer of the days The ice will thaw [Instrumental Break] [Bridge 3: Troy Sanders and Brent Hinds] As the soldier walks through the crimson side Researchers of aftermath Dispelling disarming man One-toed horses the subject of Genesis And the immigrants Fundamental side of a human mind Hulder folk and fairies So believe [Outro] The hero of the gods The crossing of the threshold The belly of the whale Refusal of return
