Lyrics for Cry Wolf

Oh, night I left the city, dreamt of wolf He came from where the winds are cold And truth is seen through keyholes Strange longings that'll never sleep And now he's come where no heart beats Cry wolf, time to worry Cry wolf, time to worry now You can start but you cannot stop You give in but you can't give up You can tell all your desperate jokes To a world that puts your love on hold Cry wolf, time to worry Cry wolf, time to worry now Cry wolf, time to worry Cry wolf, time to worry now The sunken-in eyes And the pain in his cries A shape in the dark Cry wolf, time to worry Cry wolf, time to worry now Cry wolf, time to worry now Cry wolf, time to worry now Cry wolf, time to worry Cry wolf, time to worry now Cry wolf, time to worry now Cry wolf, time to worry now
