[Verse]
Boots in the dirt, footprints fading,
Moon howling back, no pack for parading.
Heart's a tumbleweed, rolling through the plains,
No lasso can catch these runaway veins.
Rifle on my shoulder, echoes in my chest,
World’s a poker game, cards close to my vest.
[Chorus]
Lone wolf, running where the shadows stay,
Lone wolf, ain't no shepherd, lost my way.
Howl at the night, but the night don’t reply,
Lone wolf, born to roam under this sky.
[Verse 2]
Whiskey breath whispers, ghosts on my trail,
Tales of a sinner carved deep in the shale.
Every barroom mirror, just a liar staring back,
Guitar strings snapping, can’t keep the track.
Cigarette ember, a star falling slow,
Path's a question mark, don’t know where it’ll go.
[Pre-Chorus]
Clocks ticking slower, miles never end,
Roads don’t bend, they break when they pretend.
[Chorus]
Lone wolf, running where the shadows stay,
Lone wolf, ain't no shepherd, lost my way.
Howl at the night, but the night don’t reply,
Lone wolf, born to roam under this sky.
[Bridge]
Outlaw in my bloodstream, rust in my soul,
Freedom’s a price I pay in pieces, not whole.
Ravens in the distance, they call me their kin,
Battle scars outside, but the war’s within.
