Running from the wolves

Unplug. Head for the exits. Escape

Inhale. Exhale. Feel the relief.

Walk away

Keep the wolves at bay

But they gnaw, and they claw, and they consume my soul

They taunt, and they tease, and they devour me whole

Rest. Pacify the spirit. Calm

Quiet, now, be ever so quiet

Walk away

Keep the wolves at bay

If I could only let it all go

If I could only leave it all behind

If I could only give it all up

If I could only clear my mind

But they stalk, and they mock, and they sense my fear

They pace, and they chase, drawing ever so near

If I could only undo what has been done

If I could only turn back time

If I could only make right, all that went wrong

If I could only clear my mind

Retreat. Disappear. Fade away

Vanish. Recede. Keep the wolves at bay

Just walk away

Keep the wolves at bay
