Wolves Beneath the Moon

[Verse 1] You walked away Duty packed in your suitcase Said love like ours Could only burn down worlds I watched you fade In a rearview full of promises Raised a child With your ghost in every smile [Pre-Chorus] You wrote from shadows Kept my name behind your teeth I heard the cracks In every careful word you’d speak [Chorus] We were wolves beneath the moon Running from a truth we knew You were never gone from me Even when I lost the view You loved my boy like he was yours Every scar You loved me more We were always meant to move Like wolves beneath the moon [Verse 2] Years ran wild I learned to sleep with one eye open You learned steel And the language of locked doors They took you down Cold bars between our fingertips That empty space Made my whole world tilt and roar [Pre-Chorus] I tore through paper walls Signed my name in fire and ink If they buried you They’d have to bury me linked [Chorus] We were wolves beneath the moon Running from a truth we knew You were never gone from me Even when I lost the view You loved my boy like he was yours Every scar You loved me more We were always meant to move Like wolves beneath the moon [Bridge] [Soft synth pad Heartbeat kick Close duet vocals] Teeth to tether Claw to chain I chose you In the jaws of pain (oh) Hand on your chest I heard it clear Every year apart Was howling in your ribs [Chorus] Now we’re wolves beneath the moon No more borders No more tombs You are running next to me And our child is racing too You love my boy like he is yours Every step We’re something pure We were always meant to move Like wolves beneath the moon (Like wolves, like wolves) Beneath the moon
