Wolves 04:55
You say it in your sleep, the howling wolves are coming out to hunt us down You say it in your sleep, the howling wolves are coming out to hunt us down You see it in your sleep, the howling wolves are coming out to hunt us down You see it in your sleep, the howling wolves are coming out to hunt us down And the road's in a straight line, and I wouldn't want to leave you And the road's in a straight line, won't let none of them deceive you You’re calling up to me, that you get so lonely It's just the sound that your heart makes when you breathe You say it in your sleep, the howling wolves are coming out to hunt us down In packs surround us, with tooth and claw, and they're just like you are, just like you are oh, just like you are oh And the road's in a straight line, and I wouldn't want to leave you And the road's in a straight line, won't let none of them deceive you And they're narrow, no incline…they're straighter than us And the road's in a straight line, and I wouldn't want to leave you And the road's in a straight line, won't let none of them deceive you And the road's in a straight line, and I wouldn't want to leave you And the road's in a straight line, won't let none of them deceive you And their narrow, no incline…they're straighter than us

Ladders 04:27
Take me with your lion heart Take me with your lion heart If all the ladders lead to this I know We're losing battles Strike me with your bow and arrow Leave me here to take the blow When all the ladders lead to this I know It's a losing battle But I see right through it I saw right through it all You're a coward man, now You're my hit-and-run Don't come for me darling Leave this thing undone Take me with your lion heart Take me with your lion heart If all the ladders lead to this I know we're losing battles You're a coward man, now You're my hit-and-run Don't come for me darling Leave this thing undone You're a coward man, now Better face the facts Don't come for me darling Don't come running back He'll wait, in the dead old night Like an animal hunting the light Climbing the ladders as they give way And fall around us You're a coward man, now You're my hit-and-run You're a coward man, now Leave this thing undone You're a coward man, now You're my hit-and-run You're a coward man, now Leave this thing undone

Face down, you lie in the water And you won't stop holding your life up to mine Rose up at midday to meet you But you can't hide the boldest envy in your eyes It's as if I'm in possession of, everything you want We walk like humans, feel like animals And I won't be a part when it's dark, and it's dark in here I won't be a part when it's dark You cling to me like a baby But you can't solve all of your problems with mine Jealousy hits you like cold air in your lungs And you can't decide, can you love and hate all at once? It's as if I'm in possession of, everything you want We walk like humans, feel like animals And I won't be a part when it's dark, and it's dark in here I won't be a part when it's dark

Gabriel 03:47
Wide awake and I can hear my heart beat Hopes it cradles me and rocks my bones to sleep Protector in the light and a stranger in the dark And he don't say anything more Bound by suffocating secrets I must keep Gabriel you've gone too far Gabriel you've gone too far and you should hang your head in shame For these wounds I cannot stay, Gabriel you've gone too far Gabriel you've gone too far and you should hang your head in shame For these wounds I cannot stay The sum of all the parts that you have taken Are a fraction of the parts that make me whole For he was stronger than I was but it's strength you can't sustain Do not come to give me counsel you should beg forgiveness of me Gabriel Gabriel you've gone too far Gabriel you've gone too far and you should hang your head in shame For these wounds I cannot stay, Gabriel you've gone too far Gabriel you've gone too far and you should hang your head in shame For these wounds I cannot stay, You've gone too far, you broke my heart You've gone too far Gabriel Gabriel Gabriel Gabriel
