THE WOLF THAT KEPT ME WARM (Dark Dubstep Remix)

Title: The Wolf That Kept Me Warm [INTRO] There’s something by the doorway still breathing in the dark I used to call it damage now I know it has my heart [VERSE 1] It learned to walk beside me when the lights went out too soon learned the shape of every exit learned to read a leaving room It never asked for mercy it never made a sound just stood between the world and me when no one else was around [PRE-CHORUS] Now it growls at open windows checks the lock on every smile I call it being careful but I’ve been lonely for a while [CHORUS] I don’t wanna kill the wolf it kept me warm when I was freezing but I’m tired of showing teeth to every hand that tries to reach me I don’t wanna curse the dark it taught my eyes to see the danger but I can’t keep calling love another stranger [VERSE 2] I make a joke when it gets honest drop my eyes when kindness stays turn a soft word into warning like a match becomes a blaze I test the ones who love me just to prove they’ll disappear then blame them for the silence I built around my fear [PRE-CHORUS] And I know it wasn’t evil it was hungry, it was young it was born inside a winter with a prayer under its tongue [CHORUS] I don’t wanna kill the wolf it kept me warm when I was freezing but I’m tired of showing teeth to every hand that tries to reach me I don’t wanna curse the dark it taught my eyes to see the danger but I can’t keep calling love another stranger [ELECTRIC GUITAR BREAK] [BRIDGE] You did your job you got me through you can lay down I’ll watch the room No one is taking what we survived but we don’t have to live there every night [FINAL CHORUS] I don’t wanna kill the wolf it kept me warm when I was freezing but I’m tired of showing teeth to every hand that tries to reach me I don’t wanna curse the dark it taught my eyes to see the danger but I can’t keep calling love another stranger [OUTRO] I don’t wanna kill the wolf I just wanna teach my teeth there are hands that aren’t leaving there are hands that aren’t leaving
