Wolves
Every Man is An Island Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Beneath your feet there's a war and you can feel it from here
So much louder than silence it self and now that you can hear my words
We're gonna devastate the depths of hell

Down with the gates so much was taken from me
Hell can't have what's mine, rightfully mine
Down with the chains that clench my highest dreams
Together we rewrite history

Think about it for just a second
We can be free once and for all
No pain, no cries, we can live forever
Forever live

There's no time to decide anymore
They start a war, we start revolution

So throw your fist up to the sky
The time is now, it's now my friends
And for the living dead
Rise

Down with the gates so much was taken from me
Hell can't have what's rightfully mine
Down with the chains that clench my highest dreams

Together we rewrite history

We are, we are, we are the wolves
We have to stay to move on
And if you here with bad intentions
All the promises won't be yours

We are, we are, we are the wolves
We have to stay to move on
We are, we are, we are the wolves
We have to stay to move, move, move.
