lyrics

He howls and sighs
A wolf never satiated
By the sweetness
Of honey and wine
Oh lord he cries
Prowling the wilds
It was the devil in him
That drank deep &
Swallowed the poison

Worn down
When the world cast him out—
It was the endless stream of everything
Reminding him he was less than whole
But he is no one now...
Just dust inside a velvet bag
The spirit separated from the ash

Does he call for her
The lost child filled with a sweetness
Like honey and wine
Oh is she still running with the horses?
It was the devil in him...
Or maybe god who
Let in the poison

Worn down
When the world cast him out—
It was the endless stream of everything
Reminding him that he was less than whole
But he is no one now...
Just dust inside a velvet bag
The spirit separated from the ash

So the wolf is left to languish on
Fading slow into a dark night
Restless
howling from the other side
Stuck between
He begs for mercy
A salvation sweet
like honey & wine

Worn down
When the world cast him out
It was the endless stream of everything
Reminding him he that he was less than whole
But he is no one now...
Just dust inside a velvet bag
The spirit separated from the ash
