I wake up where the headlights die Rain on asphalt, throat full of lies Red in the corner of my eye A velvet shadow passing by They taught me stories to keep me tame Good boys, bad wolves, heaven and shame But the moon don’t care what I was before It calls my name, I’m on all fours ... Bones remember what I try to forget Every promise soaked in sweat ... I am the wolf inside the frame Freeze the scream, roll the pain She wears red like a warning sign I cross the line every time Neon moon, open veins Love sounds just like chains Say a prayer, say goodbye I am the reason fairy tales lie ... Her footsteps echo like a drum Closer now, there’s nowhere to run Perfume, fear, a racing heart That’s where the hunger starts Grandma’s house, lights still on Static hums to an old love song I smell regret through wooden doors This isn’t myth — this is gore ... Hands shake, halo cracks No way to take this moment back ... I am the wolf inside the frame Freeze the scream, roll the pain She wears red like a warning sign I cross the line every time Neon moon, open veins Love sounds just like chains Say a prayer, say goodbye I am the reason fairy tales lie ... If you look at me Don’t look too long You’ll see the man Then he’ll be gone Silver mercy, morning light Will it save me from last night? ... Once upon a time… I was human. ... I am the wolf, I wear his skin Every ending starts within Red on red, no alibi Happily never after tonight Neon moon, camera rolls Monster learns he has a soul Cut to black, no reprise This is how the fairy tale dies ... Cut the lights, the damage done Morning kills what I’ve become Fairy tale in thirty frames Same old curse, different name
