Lonesome Wolf
Sometimes I just want to give a war cry to the sky
Disappear and leave all this behind
When feeling down and suppressed,
I just want to run until I'm out of breathe
This thing lives inside of me
It claws from within until I begin to bleed
A lost soul with a cold stroll,
Walks through my consciousness gaping hole
I ask myself, who I am..
My answer is as vague as a ghost pirate searching for land
I struggle from within,
And sometimes I just can't win
I plug my ears and try to flush my thoughts with Ektomorf
Only temporarily, does it calm the thing, that wolf
Sometimes I can't hide the beast that wants to be free
It compels me to hunt for what it seems a eternity
Sometimes with words I cannot express..
How to cope with my growing loneliness
But I will endure,
Because sometimes life's a mess
And I fear the beast within will never be caressed..
But such is the way
Of this thing within,
The lonesome wolf
Crying to the moon, with a solitary howl
