Lonely Wolf
It's getting harder to be free
Sometimes I feel like my body is too fragile a vessel for my spirit
If you could see what the chains do to me
You'd understand
You'd know that I have to go
I have to…
I might be the lonely wolf
If you try to keep me in your white church
I might make you doubt your worth
‘Cause I’m done letting others tell me what works
And when the moon comes over the valley, I think I can taste it
And when the wind blows down through the mountains, I can’t help but chase it
I can’t see where I’m headed but it shouldn’t be wasted
Don’t hold me back
Don’t hold me back
This might be my price to pay
If I want the wild, then I can’t stay
‘Cause I have tried the narrow lane
All it does is keep my soul in chains
And when the moon comes over the valley, I think I can taste it
(No time to stay)
And when the wind blows down through the mountains, I can’t help but chase it
(Take me away)
I can’t see where I’m headed but it shouldn’t be wasted
(Eyes wide awake)
Don’t hold me back
Don’t hold me back
I’m racing, all alone
I see the dawn
It’s hopeless, I’m already gone (X2)
And when the moon comes over the valley, I think I can taste it
And when the wind blows down through the mountains, I can’t help but chase it
I can’t see where I’m headed but it shouldn’t be wasted
Don’t hold me back
Don’t hold me back
