In the crack of a skull
In the blink of an eye
All trouble gnawing from the inside
Can not be doubted or disguised
And now I turn to walk away
Haul myself through another day
It's not the way that I planned it
It's not the way it's meant to be
I'm not sure what it means to me
The howl of the heart is a raging bull
The howl of the heart is an open road
The howl of the heart is a lonesome crow
The howl of the heart is a hungry wolf
That won't back down
In the black of the night
In the jaws of defeat
You dream of finding salvation
In that crooked, crooked beat
So many reasons to strike
So many reasons to maintain
These modern days have temptations
That never fail to entertain
That never fail to take the strain
Tired of talking, it's not working
Tired of bitching, it's not helping at all
Trying to understand
Trying to comprehend
Trying to recognise, I'm complicit to the end
