Wolves Among Us

[Intro]
In the depths of the darkened woods,  
Echoes of shadows, misunderstood.
Time can heal some wounds, but scars still remain,
Unbeknownst to the Buck, the pain can't be tamed.
[Verse 1]
A Buck in the forest, remembers his past,
Through branches and brambles, the Buck hears what he thought wouldn't last,
Each single wolf is a problem, now formed as a mass .
[Pre-Chorus]
They circle around him with hunger for fear,  
Eyes like fire, silently near.
Bad thoughts are howling beneath the pale moon,  
He believes that running is the only way,
But to escape is to face it and pay.
[Chorus]
Wolves in the night, they stalk and they stare,  
Hiding in corners of his self-laden lair.
The weight of his burdens, too heavy to bear,  
He runs from the shadows, his fate isn't fair.
[Verse 2]
Depression is lurking, its jaws open wide,  
Each flash of remembrance, a haunting tide.
Lack of acceptance, a whisper of hate,  
These wolves are relentless, manipulating fate.
[Pre-Chorus]
In the forest of memories, they feast on despair,  
While the Buck tries to fight, they’re always there.
With each beat of his heart, they draw ever near,  
A primal reminder that he must face his fears.
[Chorus]
Wolves in the night, they bite and they howl,  
No matter where he runs, wolves still prowl.
The weight of his past, he runs so scared,  
He won't accept forgiveness, his heart laid bare.
[Bridge]
And as he sprints blindly, he stumbles and tires,  
Realizing the truth, the echo of liars.
You can’t flee forever, the past holds its claim,  
The wounds that we carry, they’re never the same.
[Chorus]
Wolves in the night, they stalk and they stare,  
Hiding in corners of his self-laden lair.
The weight of his burdens, too heavy to bear,  
He runs from the shadows, his heart laid bare.
[Verse 3]
If you're broken and scarred, and don't feel connected,
Face it head on, accept it, respect it.
It's time to move on, forward, inspired,
Don't let it chase you, let it fuel your fire.
Time cannot always heal, sometimes it stays,
Mentally, Physically, there's a number of ways.
Don't run forever, from the wolves you can't hide,
From the very first attack, remember you survived.
[Outro]
In the stillness he finds, amidst chaos and night,  
Acceptance of darkness could bring forth the light.
Embrace all the shadows, don’t hide from the fall,  
For healing begins when you stand strong and tall.
