FIRST AID KIT
"Wolf"

Wolf mother, where you been?
You look so worn, so thin
You're a taker, devil's maker
Let me hear you sing, hey ya, hey ya

Wolf father at the door
You don't smile anymore
You're a drifter, shape-shifter
Let me see you run, hey ya, hey ya

Holy light, oh, burn the night
Oh, keep the spirits strong
Watch it grow, child of wolf
Keep holding on

When I run through the deep
Dark forest long after this begun
Where the sun would set
Trees were dead and the rivers were none

And I hope for a trace
To lead me back home from this place
But there was no sound
There was only me and my disgrace

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey-hey, hey, ya

Wolf mother, where you been?
You look so worn, so thin
You're a taker, devil's maker
Let me hear you say, hey ya, hey ya

Wolf father at the door
You don't smile anymore
You're a drifter, shape-shifter
Let me see you run, hey ya, hey ya

Wayward winds
The voice that sings of a forgotten land
See it fall, child of wolf
Lend a mending hand

When I run through the deep dark forest
Long after this begun
Where the sun would set
Trees were dead and the rivers were none

And I hope for a trace
To lead me back home from this place
But there was no sound
There was only me and my disgrace

Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey-hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey-hey, hey, ya
