Lyrics Orange Goblin – The Wolf Bites Back
Text:
By night, the predators arise
Intent, it’s written in their eyes
The weak, succumb to our disease
What we seek, a ritual release
Irrational in your belief
Upholder of the law becomes the petty thief
Who prays for you when we attack?
With fire and a fury
The wolf bites back
A steel, that slices through the night
We bleed, the wounded rise to fight
We howl, our legacy Is war
You run, now the wolf is at your door
Evermore
You paid for faith, they gave you sin
Alone you always feel the pack is closing in
The race is run, your time is through
Like lambs unto the slaughter
Irrational in your belief
Upholder of the law becomes the petty thief
Who prays for you when we attack?
With fire and a fury
The wolf bites back
(The wolf bites back)
(The wolf bites back, yeah)
(The wolf bites back)
The night recedes and turns to dust
The blades of vengeance start to rust
The weak will fall and fade to grey
And you pray
You paid for faith, they gave you sin
Alone you always feel the pack is closing in
The race is run, your time is through
Like lambs unto the slaughter
Irrational in your belief
Upholder of the law becomes the petty thief
Who prays for you when we attack?
With fire and a fury
The wolf bites back
The wolf bites back
The wolf bites back
