lyrics

Trying to stay alive for my mother’s sake
Cause nobody should host their child’s wake
So I went looking for Jesus and my inner child
Tried to free my soul back into the wild
The troubles I have are troubles well known
But some lack the strength when the teeth hit the bone
I got wolves howling behind me as if life’s too frail to last
Wolves howling behind me like a cancer of the past
These wolves outrun my shaky knees
I was looking for your love did you know that?
I was whispering your name behind your back
There’s a big hole in me. Can it go on forever?
Would you take me in your home and pull me pack together?
The troubles I have are troubles well known
But some lack the strength when the teeth hit the bone
I got wolves howling over me as if life’s too frail to last
Wolves howling over me like a cancer of the past
These wolves outrun my shaky knees
I’ve been up way past midnight, I sleep in all day
I feel like I’m missing something between the womb and the grave
Trying to stay alive for my mother’s sake
Cause nobody should host their child’s wake
I got wolves howling over me as if life’s too frail to last
Wolves howling over me
