[Verse 1] The king is lost The crown sits cold A beast in the room With eyes of gold He watches it all The table, the feast They carry on living While he stays the beast [Pre-Chorus] He walks alone When the gates go down A name in the smoke A ghost in the town [Chorus] Lone wolf, come back (Lone wolf, come back) Lone wolf, come back When the dark comes back He fights for their lives Then gets cast aside Lone wolf, come back Then he slips back inside [Verse 2] They call when it breaks When fear gets loud When shadows get teeth In the middle of crowds He goes to the fire He goes to the war He leaves with their thanks Then gets less than before [Pre-Chorus] He walks alone When the gates go down A name in the smoke A ghost in the town [Chorus] Lone wolf, come back (Lone wolf, come back) Lone wolf, come back When the dark comes back He fights for their lives Then gets cast aside Lone wolf, come back Then he slips back inside [Bridge] Back to the woods Back to the rain Back where the demons Know him by name They sit in the dark Like old friends do He closes the door And they wait for him too [Final Chorus] Lone wolf, come back (Lone wolf, come back) Lone wolf, come back When the dark comes back He fights for their lives Then gets cast aside Lone wolf, come back Still he wears that hide Lone wolf, come back (Lone wolf, come back) Lone wolf, come back He was built for the night
