Text: Bonnie Prince Billy. Wolf Among Wolves.
She loves a soul
That I've never been
A dog among dogs
A man among men
And every day
When I come home to her
She holds a phantom
She kisses and she hugs him
And I am not
Averse to how she loves him
Why must I live and walk?
Unloved as what I am
Why can't I be loved as what I am
A wolf among wolves and not as a man among men
She craves a home that she can go in
A sheltered cave that I have never seen
Not in my life
And not even in my dreams
Why can't I be loved as what I am
A wolf among wolves and not as a man among men
That I've never been
A dog among dogs
A man among men
And every day
When I come home to her
She holds a phantom
She kisses and she hugs him
And I am not
Averse to how she loves him
Why must I live and walk?
Unloved as what I am
Why can't I be loved as what I am
A wolf among wolves and not as a man among men
She craves a home that she can go in
A sheltered cave that I have never seen
Not in my life
And not even in my dreams
Why can't I be loved as what I am
A wolf among wolves and not as a man among men
Bonnie Prince Billy
