Unchain the Wolf Lyrics

"Bleed out!
It's the burden of your clan,
so son, bleed out.
It's our sorrow, and our fate,
so boy, bleed out.
It's written in your veins, you know;
your forebears hung themselves with rope
and this here, it's your destiny."

So I
set foot in this sacred place again
but it's gone,
all vestige fucking gone.
I hold your empty gaze in mine,
but must I leave our past behind?
"The spine of nature bends blind."
Farewell; my will is thine...

This is the end,
this is my last unmaking;
unchain the wolf.

This is the end,
lineage stands unbreaking,
so unchain the wolf

What hell is this
that seethes before my eyes?
Is this what I called home?
One last nail for the god you failed...
That's all.
That's all I have to give.

"Stop shaking, make a noose;
this rope, it held your father; it can hold you.
The taking of our men too soon
is old,
older than you,
older than me;
it comes whether you're ready
or not..."

Never again
slumbering embers to wake;
Only the dead
celebrants here in decay.

Withered life,
dream again...

Ahhhhh

"Give me your hand,
As a pledge of sincerity"

The twilight fades:
all fortresses sink below
the surface of the roaring waves.

Open his maw
On earth, in sky; sun and moon devoured
Between the great beast's gaping jaws...
Go!

The mirror gaze
Is fractured, and it's a lie,
the ashes of some distant blaze.

Swallow me whole;
leave my good eye with the wanderer:
to set aflame the bowels cold...
Go!

One more time,
Here's to demise...
Chorus 2 (growled):
This is the end,
this is my last unmaking;
unchain the wolf.

This is the end,
heritage stands unbreaking,
Un....
Unchain the wolf.
Unchain the wolf...
