Cry Wolf
Mt. Wolf Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
in a new reflection
did you let go of the devils on your back
free from addiction
in my affection
was it always a matter of time before you left me there to take down the walls
I wonder how to go on
at all
you left me there
alone to pack up the sky
and tear through the paper moon
I wonder how to go on
when you
cry wolf
when you
cry wolf
when you
cry wolf
when you
cry wolf
Did you fall on an answer
and safe from disaster
did you reason that the better man had won
crawling on empty
and shadows became me
and it was only a matter of time before you left me there to take down the wolves
how I wonder how to go on at all without (...)
you left me there
alone to pack up the sky
and tear through the paper moon
I wonder how to go on
when you
cry wolf
when you
cry wolf
when you
cry wolf
when you
cry wolf.
In the song "Cry Wolf" by Mt. Wolf, the lyrics speak to a relationship that has fallen apart due to dishonesty and miscommunication. The opening lines address the idea of finding one's own version of perfection, perhaps leading to a change in perspective and the desire to let go of past addictions. The singer in the song reflects on their former partner's departure, wondering how to move forward alone. The use of metaphorical language - "pack up the sky" and "tear through the paper moon" - suggest a level of devastation and hopelessness.

Fun fact, if you search "Cry wolf" you get a lot of tracks, but not this one! And none of them are close to this one. It has found it's own perfection
