Wolves
Palisades Lyrics

Damn it all to hell
I am extremely frustrated and upset

I lost the map
I am lost and confused

From last time that I took this trip
I have been in this situation before

And I forgot just where I fell
I am unable to remember how I got into this situation

And now I can just never tell
I am unsure of how to move forward

Where it is I stand
I am uncertain about my current position

I lost myself from the first time that I took you in
I became lost and uncertain when I first encountered you

And you forgot how hard you fell
You have forgotten the consequences of your actions

And now you’re just starting to sell your self short of the
You are not living up to your full potential

Mistakes that I never wanted you to make
I tried to prevent you from making mistakes

You’ve become what they crave
You have become what others desire

Wolves will eat your skin
You will be hurt and taken advantage of

If you let them in
If you allow people to take advantage of you

You’re a child in the corner
You are vulnerable and helpless

So I’m setting up some borders
I am establishing boundaries to protect myself

To keep in my sanity
To prevent myself from going crazy

I’m escaping from your fantasy
I am breaking free from your unrealistic expectations

Here I go again
I am once again in a familiar situation

I find me standing
I am unsure of my position

In the same place just where I began
I am not making progress

Never knowing up from down
I am confused and disoriented

Only that I’ll hit the ground
I am certain of my imminent failure

Damn it wheres my head?
I am feeling overwhelmed and disorganized

I find me fast awake laying in my bed
I cannot sleep because of my worries

And even in my sleep
My worries are affecting me even when I am not conscious

I’m grinding at my teeth
I am anxious and stressed

So what’s the point?
I am questioning the purpose of my actions

So prove your point
Do something to justify your actions

Just like the current
Similar to the movement of water

Of the ocean
The ocean's waves

Pulling ourselves back and forth
We are experiencing conflicting emotions

A compass that has no direction
We are lost and unsure of where to go

Never knowing what is north
We do not have a clear direction

I need to be
I require

The remedy
A solution or cure

Before it’s just too late
Before it becomes impossible to fix

I’m wondering
I am pondering or questioning

If theres a cure
If there is a solution or remedy

And how much we’ll have to take
How much we will have to endure to find the solution

I never wanted to be this lonely
I did not intend to end up feeling so isolated

I never thought about what was at stake
I did not consider the potential consequences of my actions

You never thought about molding yourself
You did not attempt to improve or better yourself

Now I’m left with my hands of clay
I am struggling with a difficult situation that I cannot change or control
