Some crippling dream 00:26

I know whose fault it is, I know it isn't me 00:30

The wolf is free 00:36

I want to chase him down and drown him in the sea 00:40

The innocents flock like sheep 00:56

Their efforts all in vain, the wolf is back again 01:01

I hope he comes for me 01:06

I'm not out running him, and I'm not gonna scream 01:11

I'm gonna follow him 01:53

I know his name 01:57

I know his name 02:02

The wolf is free 02:30

His eyes are narrowing, it is a scary thing 02:36

And some fears run deep 02:41

There is a change in him, there is a change in me 02:46

I'll put you to sleep, my fingers through your hair Into your skin they'll be 03:01

Ten fingernails deep, and I won't let you go 03:11

You will not bury me 03:18

04:04

Some crippling dream

I know whose fault it is, I know it isn't me

The wolf is free

I want to chase him down and drown him in the sea

The innocents flock like sheep

Their efforts all in vain, the wolf is back again

I hope he comes for me

I'm not out running him, and I'm not gonna scream

I'm gonna follow him

I know his name

The wolf is free

His eyes are narrowing, it is a scary thing

And some fears run deep

There is a change in him, there is a change in me

I'll put you to sleep, my fingers through your hair Into your skin they'll be

Ten fingernails deep, and I won't let you go

You will not bury me
