We Were Wolves Songtext
von NGHBRS

Was it the whiskey or the rain?
The night when we lost our brains
When we tried to form words
And turn them into phrases
We were kids, we were wolves
Just howling at the setting moon
Our feet hung from the ground
All the green leaves and dirt
The cars turned to lights as we rushed into youth

I was the king of my hot heavy days
I welcomed my wolves and I gathered my fame
I′ve got my pride and that's all I can blame
If you try to taste my brother′s blood
You'll get the worst of me


We walked through the blur
And screamed out at the veins of earth
We caught ourselves fading in dark wooded woods
I told you life was beautiful
I told you what it meant to me

I was the king of my hot heavy days
I welcomed my wolves and I gathered my fame
I've got my pride and that′s all I can blame
If you try to taste my brother′s blood
You'll get the worst of me

Wait, boy, it′s only 'cause you′re dreaming
So, dead boy, let it out
Remember what they're waiting for
You′ve got a sensible pride, now use it right

I was the king of my hot heavy days
I welcomed my wolves and I gathered my fame
I've got my pride and that's all I can blame
If you try to taste my brother′s blood
You′ll get the worst of me
You'll get the worst of me
