lyrics

the wolves have been seen
hanging ‘round town again
wearing their soft grey suits
and smoking their cigarettes
everyone knows
what they’re on about
but no-one can say
or their throat winds up cut:

no-one can talk to the wolves

like smoke they glide through the trees
drifting like memories
of places you’ll never be
of things you won’t live to regret
everyone knows
they’re powerless to harm you
unless you believe—
and you do, and they’re sure of it

no-one can talk to the wolves

in dreams they surround me,
relentless, remorseless
with blanks in their eyes
like unfinished portraits
painted on knife-blades
or carved into bone chips
‘we’re sorry,’ they tell me;
‘we don’t want to do this.’
‘we’re sorry,’ they say,
and they smile at me, lipless and grey

the sky that we know
is just a pale silhouette
of another sky we never see
even higher up overhead
everyone knows
where they were when the lights went out
but no-one can say
when it got so damn dark

no-one can talk to the wolves
