A shroud of snow had covered the land for so long The cold biting my flesh to the bone The sky was dark and the sun turned to black As I saw a shape moving in the corner of my eye
A furtive shadow was lingering over my fragile heart Cast by the flickering glow of the moon The devil’s own eyes were staring at me Casting a shroud of fear over my soul
I saw a wolf enter the town Threading its way through the night Where all the souls are blurred in a constant haze Silently looking for its prey And it was young, and strong and full of rage Ready to jump on your face And to cut out your throat And feast on your blood
Don’t live your life within the walls Of the fortress build around your heart Don’t be afraid of the dark Don’t let the wolves feed on your secret fears If you just close your heart If you just close your eyes If you just let the wolves enter your world They will devour your soul
A manic movement insidiously did grow inside the crowd Desperately trying to find the guilty goat Prey to their fears, men turned on men Starting to hunt down the stranger and the lamb
I saw the wolves enter the town Threading their way through the crowds Where all the souls are blindly waiting for the day They’ll find some leaders to obey
And they were young and strong and full of rage Ready to jump on your face And to find out how far They could feed on your fears
Don’t live your life within the walls Of the fortress build around your heart Don’t be afraid of the dark Don’t let the wolves feed on your secret fears If you just close your heart If you just close your eyes If you just let the wolves enter your world They will devour your soul
Live your life Face your trials Do not hide yourself from the world Leave your doubts Leave your fears behind
