“House of Wolves” is a fiery and fast-paced track, setting the scene for The Patient’s arrival in Hell.
Throughout the song, The Patient contemplates the dueling concepts of innocence and wickedness, weighing the worth of what he’s done in his life and how he’s sinned.

[Verse 1]
Well, I know a thing about contrition
Because I got enough to spare
And I'll be granting your permission
'Cause you haven't got a prayer
Well, I said hey, hallelujah
I'm gonna, come on, sing the praise
And let the spirit come on through you
We got innocence for days
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I think I'm gonna burn in Hell
Everybody burn the house right down
[Chorus]
And say what I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave
Tell me I'm a bad man, kick me like a stray
Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave, yeah, go
[Post-Chorus]
S-I-N, I S-I-N
S-I-N, I S-I-N
S-I-N, I S-I-N
S-I-N, I S-I-N
[Verse 2]
You play ring around the ambulance
Like you never gave a care
So get the choir boys around you
It's a compliment, I swear
And I said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
I wanna hear you sing the praise
I said ashes to ashes, we all fall down
We got innocence for days
[Pre-Chorus]
Well, I think I'm gonna burn in Hell
Everybody burn the house right down
[Chorus]
And say what I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave
Tell me I'm a bad man, kick me like a stray
Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave, yeah
[Bridge]
You better run like the devil 'cause they're never gonna leave you alone
You better hide up in the alley 'cause they're never gonna find you a home
And as the blood runs down the walls (Blood runs down the wall)
You see me creeping up these halls (Creeping up these halls)
I've been a bad motherfucker, tell your sister I'm another
Go, go, go
[Chorus]
And I said, say what I wanna say
Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave
Tell me I'm a bad man, kick me like a stray
Tell me I'm an angel, take this to my grave
[Post-Chorus]
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
Tell me I'm a bad, bad, bad, bad man
[Outro]
So get up
So get out
S-I-N, I S-I-N
