By night
The predators arise
Intent
In treason in their eyes
Your weak
Succumb to our disease
What we seek
A ritual release
For their feast
[Chorus (second half)]
Irrational
In your belief
Upholder of the law becomes a petty thief
Who prays for you
When we attack?
With fire and a fury
The wolf bites back
A steel
That slices through the night
We bleed
And the wounded rise to fight
We howl!
Our legacy is war
You run!
Now the wolf is at your door
Evermore!
[Chorus]
You prayed for faith
They gave you sin
Below you always feel the pack is closing in
The race is run
Your time is through
Like lambs up to the slaughter
Irrational
In your belief
Upholder of the law becomes a petty thief
Who prays for you
When we attack?
With fire and a fury
The wolf bites back
[Guitar solo beginning]
The wolf bites back!
The wolf bites back, yeah!
The wolf bites back!
[Guitar solo ending]
The night
Recedes and turns to dust
The blades
Of vengeance start to rust
The weak
Will fall and fade to gray
But the wolf
Will fight another day!
And you pray!
[Chorus]
You prayed for faith
They gave you sin
Below you always feel the pack is closing in
The race is run
Your time is through
Like lambs up to the slaughter
Irrational
In your belief
Upholder of the law becomes a petty thief
Who prays for you
When we attack?
With fire and a fury
The wolf bites back
The wolf bites back
The wolf bites back!
