[Intro] Tell me, Wolf... What happens when they stop running? They never stop running. No... I suppose they don't. Then we follow. [Verse 1] White mask underneath a silver moon, Every road ends somewhere too soon. Bowstring humming like a lullaby, One quiet arrow and the world says goodbye. I've watched kingdoms bloom and disappear, Watched brave hearts tremble when the end drew near. They give us names, they tell our stories wrong, But wherever life is breathing... We've been there all along. You can hide your face, you can curse the night, You can beg tomorrow for another sunrise. But death isn't cruel. It doesn't choose sides. Sometimes it's only... the end of the ride. [Pre-Chorus] So don't be afraid when you hear my bow. Some roads end gently. Some don't. Some run. Yes. Some run. I like those. [CHORUS] Never one... Without the other. LAMB: Two halves wandering forever together. One gives the arrow, One gives the chase, Two masks waiting at the end of every race. If you accept me, I'll make it quick. [WOLF] If you run... LAMB: ...then he gets his wish. Through every beginning, we wait at the end— Never one without the other, again and again. Never one... without the other... Never one... WOLF: RUN. [DROP] Without the other... [Verse 2] Once there was someone who walked all alone, So lonely they wondered if anyone would know. They took up a blade and divided in two And from that old story... came me and you. Lamb for the ones who can look in my eyes, Wolf for the ones who refuse their demise. Different approaches, the ending's the same. Every culture remembers us... just under another name. [WOLF] Tell me a story. [LAMB] You've heard them all. [WOLF] Tell me again. [LAMB] Very well. [VERSE 3 — LAMB] There was once a pale man with dark hair... who was very lonely. [WOLF] Why was he lonely? [LAMB] All things must meet this man. So... they shunned him. [WOLF] Did he chase them all? [LAMB] He took an axe... and split himself in two. [WOLF] So he would always have a friend? [LAMB] So he would always... have a friend. [Instrumental swells] LAMB / CRIMSON: Never one WOLF: WITHOUT THE OTHER. Two voices bound to eternity together. My arrow flies softly, his footsteps give chase, But every living soul will eventually see our face. You don't have to fear us. We're older than fear. [WOLF] But running is fun. LAMB: Of course you'd say that, dear. From first breath until everything ends— Never one without the other, again and again. [BRIDGE] Maybe endings aren't empty. Maybe goodbye isn't the absence of love. Maybe every life becomes a story someone carries... after we're gone. So when the moonlight finds you someday, And you hear something moving through the trees... Don't be afraid. It's only us. [WOLF] Found you. [FINAL DROP] LAMB: One arrow. WOLF: ONE CHASE. LAMB: One ending. WOLF: ONE RACE. LAMB: One Lamb. WOLF: ONE WOLF. BOTH: NEVER ONE WITHOUT THE OTHER. Never one... Never one... without the other... [Outro] WOLF: Lamb... LAMB: Yes, dear Wolf? WOLF: Are we friends? LAMB: ... Always.
