Wolves at the Door

Theres no paradise left for us
No punishment will be enough
Cigarette smoke, concealed disgust
And this lust that I’m ashamed of
Loose with my words, foolish in thought
I’ll forget everything you ever taught
Our destruction, the damage we wrought
Forgive all this pain that I caused
You love a man
And not myself
You love a king
And he’s someone else
You love something more
Something more than cruel
You love this illusion
For you, I’ll play the fool
With the wolves at the door
And my heart on a whore
I have started a war
Push my face to the floor
With the wolves at my door
And my mask on the wall
Shaken to my core
I can’t take this anymore
(Do your worst, come on; do anything you want to me)
I always aim towards the stars
Trying to mend our shattered hearts
This love will tear us apart
I’ll tell our story in my scars
After your love, I talk with my teeth
Every new paramour becomes a feast
Oh courtesan, succulent to eat
I’ve become a wolf to the sheep
