The Wolf You Feed (feat. Alissa White-Gluz)
Nita Strauss
The dark, the night
Only linger when you won’t open your eyes
To seek and find
A world whose bark outweighs its bite
Bite the hand!
Life’s a battle you command
A great divide
Dictates the howling of the mind
Though the Moon outruns the Sun
She reflects her light
Tell me everything you need
To kill the numb
And find the strength to become
A storm that never loses speed
When it’s said and done
You become the wolf you feed
Two halves, un-whole
Twisting stories to be told
Tightropes we tread
Bridge heaven and hell inside our heads
Heads held high
Contemplating fight or flight
You ask me why
I say the answer lies inside
Tell me everything you need
To kill the numb
And find the strength to become
A wolf that never needs to feed
It’s said and done
You’ve become the wolf you need
