lyrics

Barely alive and left for dead, she ground her bones until they bled

Guilt of your words just too hard to swallow
Choked on everything but your way out
You cannot pretend to play the victim
Build me up to break me down

Train of your thought just too hard to follow
You broke down everything but your own walls
You cannot pretend to pull your punches
Pull me in to knock me out

So with a last cigarette and a blindfold
She bid fake friends a fair-weathered farewell
Slipped further away to the grey hell
Once more, in to the breach again
The faint threat of death just a whisper
But god knows that I'd kill just to kiss her
So when the truth all comes out with the dirt in your mouth
I see you've buried yourself alive

So burn down,
Burn down the house where I stand
Another matchstick from your mouth baby
Now light up the next man

It's not a noble lie to try and save my life
When there's no room left for less than perfect sympathy tonight.

Give or take her lives at stake
Wandering blind and built to break
Eye for an eye the whole world dies
Hung out to dry and bastardized
Eye for an eye the whole world dies
Give or take her lives at stake
Wandering blind and built to break
Give or take her lives at stake
Wandering blind and built to break

The curtains starting to close
On the bones that she called home
The curtains starting to close
On the bones that she called home

So with a last cigarette and a blindfold
She bid fake friends a fair-weathered farewell
Slipped further away to the grey hell
Once more, in to the breach again
The faint threat of death just a whisper
But god knows that I'd kill just to kiss her
When the truth all comes out with the dirt in her mouth
I see she's buried herself alive

She turned down,
Turned down the fire first hand
Another testament to her ignorance
She's hanging a dead man

It's not a noble lie to try and save her life
When there's no room left for less than perfect sympathy tonight

Give or take her lives at stake
Wandering blind and built to break
Eye for an eye the whole world dies
Hung out to dry and bastardized
Eye for an eye the whole world lies
Give or take her lives at stake
Wandering blind and built to break
Give or take her lives at stake
Wandering blind and built to break

The curtains starting to close
On the bones that she called home
The curtains starting to close
On the bones that she called home

about

Lonewolves Nottingham, UK

"A Nottingham based, rum-and-coke-fuelled, down-tuned riff-fest, covertly thrashing their way around the local scene, Lonewolves are currently in the processes of writing and recording new material for an upcoming summer release with a richer, thicker and more refined version of their trademark sound.
For fans of ETID, SFTP, and Letlive this will be a definite release to look out for."
