In the Company of Wolves Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was lost, but now I am found
A line was crossed, a vessel run aground
The boy is gone, let's grieve and let him go
He left a dog, but it's a new day, don't you know?
[Chorus]
In the company of wolves I sat in silence
Observant and afraid
He was there with the eyes like glowing embers
The man you see was made, oh-woah
[Verse 2]
I was low, but now I am high
It helps to know serenity from ennui, oh
Something's wrong, something's wrong, when it all remains the same
So face the fire, come into your name, oh
[Chorus]
In the company of wolves I sat in silence
Observant and afraid
Ooh, he was there with the eyes like glowing embers
The man you see was made, oh-oh-ooh
[Instrumental Break]
I was lost, but now I am found
A line was crossed, a vessel run aground
The boy is gone, let's grieve and let him go
He left a dog, but it's a new day, don't you know?
[Chorus]
In the company of wolves I sat in silence
Observant and afraid
He was there with the eyes like glowing embers
The man you see was made, oh-woah
[Verse 2]
I was low, but now I am high
It helps to know serenity from ennui, oh
Something's wrong, something's wrong, when it all remains the same
So face the fire, come into your name, oh
[Chorus]
In the company of wolves I sat in silence
Observant and afraid
Ooh, he was there with the eyes like glowing embers
The man you see was made, oh-oh-ooh
[Instrumental Break]
[Bridge]
Even I can't recall
How many days I had been out there for
But when Aurora's lights ceased to shine
I was alive, I think, for the first time
And vanity it falls, in feathery folds
But she bites, like loveless eyes
And with her belly full, she called this rite
Of passage, it was the longest night of my life
(It was, it was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
It was the longest night of life
(It was, it was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
Even I can't recall
How many days I had been out there for
But when Aurora's lights ceased to shine
I was alive, I think, for the first time
And vanity it falls, in feathery folds
But she bites, like loveless eyes
And with her belly full, she called this rite
Of passage, it was the longest night of my life
(It was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
It was the longest night of my life
(It was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
Even I can't recall
How many days I had been out there for
But when Aurora's lights ceased to shine
I was alive, I think, for the first time
And vanity it falls, in feathery folds
But she bites, like loveless eyes
And with her belly full, she called this rite
Of passage, it was the longest night of my life
(It was, it was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
It was the longest night of life
(It was, it was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
Even I can't recall
How many days I had been out there for
But when Aurora's lights ceased to shine
I was alive, I think, for the first time
And vanity it falls, in feathery folds
But she bites, like loveless eyes
And with her belly full, she called this rite
Of passage, it was the longest night of my life
(It was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
It was the longest night of my life
(It was, it was, it was)
(It was, it was, it was)
