Smoke clouds fill the lungs of the young And these forest fires burn brighter than the stars above us do It's hard to trust the hearts of men It's not their fault but something bigger than them But now the maps we make And the roads we pave All lead straight into the cities And straight down to our graves But now the constellations over head, they call my name And they offer me closure I know the way Your secrets are safe inside my coffin And I feel the same It's hard to breathe in at all when the air's all gone And you can't help yourself from caughing And your eyes roll back and the sun goes down And every shadow in the crowd bows out as well I clung to you Cause there was nothing left for me to hold on to So we cried wolf and the wolves cried back So we cried wolf and the wolves cried back So we cried wolf and the song of the wolves cried on But the howlings of those around us went unheard All the weight was placed upon the backs of those who fell To steer a sinking ship, but still that ship it would not sail So in their desperation, realizing this was hell They set their course to land and carved a brand new trail Towards Answers In their time Of needing us as well To get what they deserve They deserve It's hard to trust the hearts of men It's not their fault but something bigger than them The maps we make And the roads we pave They all lead straight into the grave The ones that we've made With hopes to be saved Calling you by name but aren't we betrayed And left with all the blame Isn't it a fucking shame that we're stuck with the gods we don't trust In a world that never caves In our wake For heavens sake Why do we fake as if we ever really had a fucking say Anyways, I've sat for days With a promise of forgiveness For all the penance that I've paid So we cried wolf and the wolves cried back So we cried wolf and the wolves cried back So we cried wolf and the wolves cried back for us
