Lyrics

I spend my weekends pulling bullets out my back
The ones I believe in are the ones who laid the trap
I let my guard down, jumped in the wrong crowd
There are wolves out there in the fog
Look me in both eyes no one’s a good guy
There are wolves among the dogs

I spent my weekends tracing tracks back to my friends
The ones I believed in are the ones who want me dead
I let my guard down jumped in the wrong crowd
There are wolves out there in the fog
Look me in both eyes no one’s a good guy
There are wolves among the dogs

I’ve been waking up at midnight
Making sure my love is still by my side
He sleeps with a gun and I sleep with mine
Cuz I know the wolf is inside his mind

I knew I’d find you in the woods
Saw your reflection in the moon
You’re not the only fuckin crook
Who tried to take my life too soon
Sucks for you that I pulled through
Not as dead as you last saw me
Here we are just me and you
You’re gonna wish you never crossed me

I spent the weekend putting bullets in his back
Gave up my freedom became the wolf and joined the pack
I let my guard down, jumped in the wrong crowd
There are wolves out there in the fog
Look me in both eyes no one’s a good guy
There are wolves inside his mind
