Wolves At The Door Lyrics

David Bazan Wolves At The Door

Wolves wait at your door
For your permission
Slyly you invite them
On one condition:
They prepare a feast
For your provisions
of root and wild beast
for you to eat

Surprise!
They took your money and ate kids
And they had their way
With your wife a little bit
While you wept on the porch
With your head in your hands
Cursing taxes and the government

Cause you're a goddamn fool
You're a goddamn fool
You're a goddamn fool
And I love you
Yeah, I love you

Lure into your eyes
Your former glory
Bright and open wide
Like Easter morning
How the light has dimmed
And how the fear of
Everything is creeping in

Cause you're a goddamn fool
You're a goddamn fool
You're a goddamn fool
And I love you
Yeah, I love you

Cause you're a goddamn fool
You're a goddamn fool
You're a goddamn fool
And I love you
Yeah, I love you
