The Crane Wives - The Wolf Lyrics

The Crane Wives Lyrics

"The Wolf"

I am not a builder
I'm much better at blowing things down
I will join the wolf
At my door
Breathing out storms when she comes around
She comes around
She comes around

I am not a tempest
I light torches in my sleep
I have gasoline in my veins
I am always burning, burning, burning

Can it be
Can it be easy for once
Cause I'm no good at being kind to myself
Or anyone

I am a falling axe
I am a sharpened knife
I am a poison asp
I am a risk to your life

My love
My love

Can it be
Can it be easy for once
Cause I'm no good at being kind to myself
Or anyone

Can it be
Can it be easy for once
Cause I'm no good at being kind to myself
Or anyone

I am a falling axe
I am a sharpened knife
I am a poison asp
I am a risk to your life
I am a swinging bat
Tumbling dynamite
I am a beast at your back
You better run for your life
Your life

I am not (I will join the wolf)
I am not (I will join the wolf)
I am not (I will join the wolf)
I am not
