[Verse 1 – Slow, chugging guitar. Spoken or snarled delivery.] I built a throne on broken ground Wore a crown of ash and pride Fed the wolves that stalked my soul While truth was crucified [Pre-Chorus – Tension builds. Cymbals swell, guitar feedback.] I called it freedom, called it right But chains still clanged in dead of night [Chorus – Full instrumentation. Roaring vocals. Melodic scream/hook hybrid.] The wolves are at the gate again And I let 'em in, I called them friends I ran from grace, I cursed His name But still He burns inside my shame I see the fire, I hear the call He breaks the proud, He lifts the fall [Verse 2 – Riff-driven. Drums hammer. Vocals seethe, like a confession.] I drank the lies, I lit the fuse Danced with the dark and called it truth Sold my soul for hollow highs But felt the rot behind my eyes [Pre-Chorus – Slight drop in volume. Tighter rhythm. Building again.] He whispered through the smoke I made "Even now, My blood can save" [Chorus – Heavier. Background screams layered with melody.] The wolves are at the gate again I wore their teeth, I played pretend But mercy walked through all my sin And tore the veil I’d hidden in I see the scars, I feel the flame He bore my death, He knows my name [Bridge – Slow breakdown. Spoken-word style with layered screams.] You think you’re too far gone? The pit too deep, the damage done? He walked through hell to bring you home You’re not alone — you’re not alone [Final Chorus – Instrumentation erupts. Vocals shout with desperation and hope.] The wolves can howl and circle close But they can't touch what Heaven holds He took my shame, He paid the cost He finds the lost, He finds the lost I see the fire, I hear the call He breaks the proud — and lifts us all [Outro – Droning guitars, fading heartbeat drums. Spoken line in whisper:] Even the wolves will bow someday...
