Wolves
Mannequin Races
This song goes all the way back to my roots of writing music mostly on acoustic guitar and recording/playing all the instruments myself. Also my first ‘proper’ recording in my new studio space. Thanks for listening!
(lyrics)
Awake me from my sleep,
don’t steal the daylight from me,
I’ve worked hard to keep it all myself,
but time is drawing to a close as you’ll soon see,
this house of cards won’t last much long
Wolves will tear my words from my mouth
and cary misconstrued thoughs to the edge of Earth
They hunt in packs,
strategize their plan,
execute with ease
Why is it easy for some and hard for others to grasp
that we are all wolves beneath these masks
Wolves will tear my words from my mouth
and cary misconstrued thoughs to the edge of Earth
Instant favorite! Very well played on all instruments!
Great guitar work also - love the tendrils through the bridge.
Ouch...poignant stuff. Love the stripped down arrangement for the intro, and then the build at 1 minute that seems to add so much weight to your words.
