Wolf Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A thousand miles to reach your reaper
I said I was doing just fine
I sat all alone between the people
I said I was doing just fine
With displeasure I'm leaving
With the pressure in my head
Can't cope with the feeling
All the things that I said
As my hands start to shiver
And my hair starts to shed
It's getting closer and closer
Oh god I wish I was dead
I said I'm fine all the time
Didn't tell her I lied to save my life
Good god can't I be just like that guy
He's a enemy but just not mine
Only a lie would be the water for the fire, to put out
No one denies all the trails in which I have stood out
Who is to blame when only the truth has to seep out
See just in time they are the face of my contorted self doubt
Shatter the lies of all that you have done
Shadow my eyes so I can blindly touch




Settle with someone else that you brought up
Shadow my eyes so I can blindly touch

Overall Meaning

In these lyrics, Wolf expresses a deep sense of isolation and struggle. The line "A thousand miles to reach your reaper" suggests a long and difficult journey to face the consequences of one's actions or to confront inner demons. Despite facing these challenges, Wolf claims to be "doing just fine" to others, possibly maintaining a facade to hide their true pain.


The mention of sitting alone amidst people further reinforces the feeling of being disconnected from others. It suggests a sense of alienation, where Wolf feels detached even in the company of others. This could be due to the internal conflicts they are experiencing, which they keep hidden from everyone else.


The recurring theme of pressure and displeasure signifies the overwhelming burden they are carrying. It's as if they are unable to handle the weight of their emotions, leading to feelings of despair and a wish for death. The use of imagery, such as hands shivering and hair shedding, portrays the physical and emotional toll this struggle is taking on them.


The next section introduces the idea of lying to save their own life. Wolf admits to presenting a false image of being "fine all the time" to others, concealing their true emotions and struggles. They long to be like someone else who seems to have it all together, even if they may be considered an enemy. This reflects the desperation to escape their own internal turmoil and find peace.


Wolf then questions the effectiveness of lying as a means to extinguish the fire within. They acknowledge that denying the truth and hiding behind falsehoods will not bring solace or resolution. The mention of trails and the face of self-doubt emphasizes the struggles and challenges they have faced, further highlighting the need for honesty and authenticity.


The final lines suggest a desire to break free from the lies and illusions that have been created. Wolf yearns for clarity and wants their eyes to be shadowed, possibly to be shielded from the painful truths. The mention of settling for someone else, perhaps in an attempt to mask their own insecurities, adds another layer to the emotional complexity depicted in the lyrics.


Overall, these lyrics convey a sense of internal conflict, isolation, and the desperate search for a way out of emotional turmoil. It explores the consequences of hiding one's true self and the yearning for authenticity amidst a struggle to maintain appearances.

This is how I would want my own Werewolf Transformation to be like quick and painless and transform into a wolf in a puff of smoke by moonlight.

@captainngoose

Can anyone actually explain why he turned into a poodle instead of a wolf?

@michelledemaio8026

he needed to get past the cameras

@captainngoose

​@Michelle Demaio
No that's not why xD. I watched the movie. He was just able to get past the cameras because he was a dog. But that's not why he's a dog.

@michelledemaio8026

🤷‍♀️

@Sagu_Un1_

@CaptainGoose then why is he a dog?

@Hailpaws

Apparently in the book his mother (when she was pregnant with freddy) was bitten by a poodle
