The Damnwells - Werewolves lyrics

rate me

Heart beats on the fault line

Of love and doubt and wasted time

I'm not here to show you up,

Break you down or change your mind

There's nothing we haven't burned

But still this fire makes no light and no heat

I have been around the world

Riding on the edge of something

Til the dawn was weak

Come in darling, stay a while

Stay away from God and thieves

There is consolation in the human failure of our dreams

Come around on the far side

Of hate and hurt and misery

With my arms empty

Wait for you like soldiers at war

Like the cross waited for Constantine

Come and let her hear

The werewolves if she wants to

Howling at the moon

Waiting for the sweet, embraceable you

Come and let her steer

Against the tide with sad, slow tunes

She might have a way out of here

You've been standing here a while

Down among the city lights

Shuffle through the bright streets of St. Petersburg

Summer white nights

I just wanna hold you up,

Face pressed to the velvet sky

So you can hear heaven answer

To every question you've ever had,

Save the ones you wanted me to ask

(Chorus)

She might have enough to fear

She is running away

With the dust and bones of the last crusade

Reaching across these oceans and fields

With a silent sway

She is coming home on the last train

From this fallen kingdom

(Chorus)

<br />

<br />
