[Intro 8 Bars] [Verse 1] I walk through the quiet of morning Where the dew writes its name in the clay I’ve learned every sound of the heart breaking down And I still lend my soul anyway [Pre-Chorus] It’s a gift and it’s a curse To feel the best and feel the worst [Chorus] I’m a lone wolf empath, chasing the dawn Hearing your hurt long after it’s gone I read your silence like lines in my hand Love like the tide — it pulls, then it stands I’m a lone wolf empath, that’s who I am [Verse 2] Sometimes I get lost in the faces Of strangers who never will know That I’ve carried their pain like a weathered refrain Then faded before it could show Pre-Chorus It’s a road I’ve come to trust Built of mercy, dust, and rust [Chorus] I’m a lone wolf empath, heart on the roam Dreams full of people but always alone I feel your fire before you strike a flame And I still forgive before you take aim I’m a lone wolf empath, that’s my name [Bridge] Sometimes I wish I could close the gate Let the echoes drift, let the world wait But the moon keeps calling my confession I was born to feel, that’s my profession [Final Chorus / Reprise] I’m a lone wolf empath, still on the run Shadow of mercy, child of the sun I’ll hold your heart for a mile or two Then slip away before I break in two I’m a lone wolf empath — loving you
