A Requiem for the Quiet Ones

I'm in the game of hiding away from all of my shame

I hit a vein, love when sorrow and pain come, I'm not afraid

Tear me away and lead me to the wolves

They hunger for me and rip meat from the bone

Never communicating, always insinuating

You tear me away, tear me away...

Keep me from falling I'm begging you please

Help me I'm crawling on my hands and knees

Push me away from this one last resort

Pull me in safe or I'll finally, finally fall short

Fortune and fame take hard risk and heartache, sellouts enslaved

You've been too vain, son no roof for the shade, sun no roof for the rain

Tear me away and lead me to the wolves

They hunger for me and rip right through the wool

Never communicating, always insinuating

You tear me away, tear me away...

Keep me from falling I'm begging you please

Help me I'm crawling on my hands and knees

Push me away from this one last resort

Pull me in safe or I'll finally, finally fall short

Keep me from falling I'm begging you please

Help me I'm crawling on my hands and knees

Push me away, offer me change

And at my limit I finally, finally fall short
