I told you, ma
I'd keep you safe
When the sun expands to consume
Our house in flames

I thought we lived forever
A simple obstacle in the way

Let it go, let it go, let it go

It turns out that we are shit out of luck
There are things in the woods that will prey
On the things that you love

And theyu0027ll come through the fold
This is the sound of a wild pack of hungry wolves
I won't lie to you, it will be painful
It's in your nature to fear what is natural
And the sun will explode
But not before you and everyone that youu0027ll ever know
(I told you all I'd keep you safe)
Will be gone, long ago
(I told I'd broke my back just trying to feel)
We are alone in this together
All alone in this together
All alone
(Here it comes, here it goes
This is the sound of our hearts turning into stone
We are alone in this together
All alone in this together
All alone)
I haven't slept in several nights and I'm not tired
Who protects the ones I love when I'm asleep?
Though there's little I can do, I say a prayer
That when the wolves come for their share
They'll come for me

    It's about loss. The wolves represent a non-specific calamity.
