[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I settle in this rented room, To weave my thoughts upon a loom. A lonely man is all they see, While there's a beast inside of me [Verse 2] I watch the people in the street, Living their lives in calm retreat. They find their peace in simple things, While I despise the joy it brings. [Pre-Chorus] The years are slipping through my hand, Like water lost in desert sand. An ember grows within my chest My weary soul is put to test [Chorus] A man and wolf live in my soul, And neither one is in control. I have no home, I have no place, A stranger to the human race. [Verse 3] I'm walking where the gutters smear, A cryptic theater then appears. Does life have more for me to see? I fear what's waiting there for me. [Verse 4] I step inside and find a chair, A woman comes to join me there. She mocks my stiff and solemn style, Commanding me to dance and smile. [Instrumental Solo] [Bridge] The wolf and man were just a lie, I watch my double nature die. My life is pieces on a board, A game I play of my accord. [Pre-Chorus] There is no room for my despair, A frantic hope is in the air. I ditch the self I’ve always known, To step into a world unknown. [Chorus] I am the wolf, I am the man, A million more since I began. No longer lost, no longer bound, Just someone else within the crowd. [Outro] I haven't solved my life just yet, I’m learning how the game is set. The wolf still roams inside my thoughts, And I just laugh at all he plots. [Instrumental Ending] [End]
