Wolf

Kate Ellis

Compositor: Kate Ellis

She looks out through a glass
As the happy people pass
And she will never know
The secret to their lives
Why everything seems right
Is it just a roll of dice

Sitting quietly and still
Legs hanging from the sill
Looking at the ground
Saying why can’t I see
The wolf in front of me
Until I'm caught inside his mouth

No, I see him coming ‘round
No, don’t let him come around
No, don’t let him come around again

Maybe I’ll find somewhere
Far from his lonely stare
But what would I do
Without the devil I knew?
Well, I wouldn’t know

Now I see him everywhere
I’ve got used to his dark hair
Sleeping at my feet
'Cause you find what you look for
And the wolf that you feed more
Will always win the war

No, I see him coming ‘round
No, don’t let him come around
No, don’t let him come around again
But what would I do
Without the devil I knew?
Well, I wouldn’t know
