Lyrics for The Wolf

I didn't trust him, 'cause he smiled at me first Just like the wolf before he bites me And I didn't go there, I swear that it was cursed Just as if it was to despite me I saw some better days, from Beijing to Hunter Place A portrait of the sum of the last couple years See I lost an image, an image of chaos All I've ever known is isolation and pain? I'm on the verge of losing everything, every single day In all this deadly drama you know I see myself fall I've been confusing A lost canyon Consuming it all I didn't trust him, cause he smiled at me first Just like the wolf before he bites me And I didn't go there, I swear that it was cursed Just as if it was to despite me So I may be antisocial and shy, and yo I found myself a job But I journey and complain, through incredible odds Its the simple things i guess, a delicate balance I never really thought I could make it all happen Now the anarchist kid gives a fuck about you I stood up every single time I fell It's just you It's just you Consuming it all I didn't trust him, cause he smiled at me first Just like the wolf before he bites me And I didn't go there, I swear that it was cursed Just as if it was to despite them I didn't trust him, cause he smiled at me first Just like the wolf before he bites me And I didn't go there, I swear that it was cursed Just as if it was to despite me Yeah!
