Motörhead - In the Year of the Wolf lyrics
[Motörhead - In the Year of the Wolf lyrics]
In the year of the wolf
All the world smelt good
In the snow and the ice
All the rest was blood
In the time of the tribes
We took a thousand lives
When I ran with the wolves
And the hunting was good
See me now, I was another not like me
When the wolves were brothers
See me now, you cannot know
The kind of food that made me grow
It was the wolf in me body and soul on fire
In the cold full moon blood-red desire
It was the wolf in me
You know it felt so true
The night I ran with the wolves
Tonight I come for you
In the year of the wolf
How could you ever know? There in the forest
I had teeth to show
In a different time when the world was mine
When I ran as a wolf and the sun burnt low
See me now, I was another
Mean and vicious, fast and clever
See me now, you would not dream
The food I ate, the food that screamed
It was the wolf in me
And all my soul was fire
By the cold dull moon blood-red desire
It was the wolf in me
I howled the cold night through
The year I ran as a wolf
Tonight the food is you
In the year of the wolf
All the tribe ran mad
On the frozen lake and I felt so glad
With tooth and claw all your blood and more
When I ran with the wolves
And the hunt turned bad
See me now, this is not me
Not like the one I used to be
See me now, you would not guess
A different heart raving in my chest
It was the wolf in me
When the world was cold
It was the life I lived
In the dark world below
It was the wolf in me crying and howling too
I was crying for the hunt
But, I was hunting for you
All the world smelt good
In the snow and the ice
All the rest was blood
In the time of the tribes
We took a thousand lives
When I ran with the wolves
And the hunting was good
See me now, I was another not like me
When the wolves were brothers
See me now, you cannot know
The kind of food that made me grow
It was the wolf in me body and soul on fire
In the cold full moon blood-red desire
It was the wolf in me
You know it felt so true
The night I ran with the wolves
Tonight I come for you
In the year of the wolf
How could you ever know? There in the forest
I had teeth to show
In a different time when the world was mine
When I ran as a wolf and the sun burnt low
See me now, I was another
Mean and vicious, fast and clever
See me now, you would not dream
The food I ate, the food that screamed
It was the wolf in me
And all my soul was fire
By the cold dull moon blood-red desire
It was the wolf in me
I howled the cold night through
The year I ran as a wolf
Tonight the food is you
In the year of the wolf
All the tribe ran mad
On the frozen lake and I felt so glad
With tooth and claw all your blood and more
When I ran with the wolves
And the hunt turned bad
See me now, this is not me
Not like the one I used to be
See me now, you would not guess
A different heart raving in my chest
It was the wolf in me
When the world was cold
It was the life I lived
In the dark world below
It was the wolf in me crying and howling too
I was crying for the hunt
But, I was hunting for you
