To the winter forest

And nowhere to go

The girl runs

Far from all she knows

The pressure rises to the top

The pressure it rises

It doesn’t stop

They want your body

They want your soul

They want fake smiles

That’s just the way it is

The wolves they surround you

A fever dream

The wolves surround you

So start to scream

Howl, into the night

Howl, until the light

Howl, it is your turn to fight

Howl, just to make it right

You can’t fight forever

You have to comply

If your life isn’t working

You have to ask why

Remember when we were young enough

Not to fear tomorrow

Or mourn yesterday

And we were just

Us

And time was just

Now

And we were in

Life

Not rising through

Like arms in a sleeve

Because we had time

We had time to breathe

The bad times are here

The bad times have come

But life can’t be over

When it hasn’t begun

The lake shines and the water’s cold

All that glitters can turn gold

Silence the music to improve the tune

Stop the fake smiles and howl at the moon
