Faraway in that disarray of white mountains Where daylight scatters the night for a brief bright Before that darkness drops onto the smokestacks and choking rivers Where the kettle whistles warm and that outdoor white warns of another hidden night Beware of those beautiful men becoming wolves My God I'm standing before a land looming on bright blankets Beneath a black all-consuming Moon sick in the sky Listening to the wail of winter winds as they hunt across unknowable Sweeps of hidden horrors And I've been praying I'm not the prey But I've spent three years running Stumbling from something stirring the nothing in my stomach That emptiness sprawling Sending me crawling through the curving wreckage I did not yet understand was wrought by my own wickedness And from the depth of that darkness I reached for rescue But my cries were spurned as the congregation turned And burned their hands with prayers I could not wait for the answer to All that spinning Sinking into the shadows of my disbelieving soul Before disappearing into a shivered pain sharp enough to shape me into a savage Feral and foul and roused by my own howls into selfishly Searching for myself at the expense of everyone else Behold Your wolf I'll steal down the mountain I'll ghost amongst the trees I'll howl for your affection I'll kiss then beg please Beware of those beautiful men becoming wolves They'll bloom from the darkness with coats of wool And you'll ache for their bite but write when they pull Reverberating That rebellion still resonating over every time and space I shift into Because I can still hear those red screams scripted across that blood-soaked coat White and warm and if you're wondering I was withdrawn into the waxed blackness Beaten Breathing stories that didn't belong to me When I was mistaken as a sheep lost in shadows Torn and tangled amidst lonely throes Hurting Helplessly stirring inside a sadness perceivable Only by those who recognized it in their own reflection She sought comfort in that shared sorrow While I weaponized words into worthless whispers like We are lonely together Forever intending to spend time contending Against those self-proclaimed promises of eternal affection It felt insurmountable That collection of contracted infections all caused by my own deflection And for what So I could tear the entire world apart searching for something houses inside my heart Inside the pump and beat of my brokenness even before it broke And beyond the next break too Because son I love you at your darkest and beyond your deepest Most dominate definition of the word Now sway into this infinite splendor Into the swing and shock of salvation Let this song serenade you into a violent surrender where I promise To always strike the snake to save you But my boy That bite will sting So come now wolf in all your writhes Wounded and weary And let me be the heat that fills your hollow-heart Shield me from that lonely sorrow Steal me from the grips of pride Speak me from that silent tomorrow Save me from the wolf inside Beware of those beautiful men becoming wolves They'll bloom from the darkness with coats of wool And you'll ache for their bite but writhe when they pull They'll steal down the mountain They'll ghost amongst the trees They'll howl for your affection They'll kiss then beg please Beware Beware Beware of those beautiful men becoming wolves
