Pharaoh - The Wolves lyrics
Your rating:
Call her your queen And lay a bed of roses at her feet Court the obscene And lay with the swine Her pledges and promises Naked lies that beg your own decline See no wrong in this You're drunk on her venomous wine Poison fills your cup And when your mouth starts to foam You trust that you're rightly riled Frothing bile Yank the leash, command it to comply The Wolves are coming Raise the whip and dare it to defy The Wolves are coming You thought you raised a dog, and wonder why The wolf has bloodlust in his eyes You're the trembling prey Wolves will not obey Slave in the mines And praise your masters' magnanimity Die for his diamonds And groan for his gold Unguarded and tame Broken by the hypnotizing hold Think you're high from the flames But you're feverish out in the cold Your life is cheaply sold And then when the coal runs out And the mountains are stripped and bare Where's your share? Yank the leash, command it to comply The Wolves are coming Raise the whip and dare it to defy The Wolves are coming You thought you raised a dog, and wonder why The wolf has bloodlust in his eyes You're the trembling prey Wolves will not obey Hacking and lame Deny yourself the wanted medicine The mark in a game That you think you control Wager with your soul And so you howl with the wolves But the scent on the wind is yours The bloody track is yours Yank the leash, command it to comply The Wolves are coming Raise the whip and dare it to defy The Wolves are coming You thought you raised a dog, and wonder why The wolf has bloodlust in his eyes You're the trembling prey Wolves will not obey
