Instinct

[Verse 1] The moon is full, the night is cold, A hunger wakes inside my soul. My skin begins to crawl and tear, A primal beast begins to wear. My spine it twists, my bones they crack, There is no turning, no turning back. The human voice becomes a growl, I lose the man, I find the prowl. [Chorus] Hear the howl that splits the sky, Claws that tear and teeth that bite. On four legs I run the night, The wolf is born, the man takes flight. No more thoughts, no more regret, Just the instinct, just the threat. I am the shadow, I am the dread, The werewolf's curse inside my head. [Verse 2] My hands are paws, my nails are steel, The scent of prey is all I feel. The forest screams, the ground is wet, My human heart has now forget. The moon is high, the blood is hot, The beast within has tied the knot. I fall to earth, I lose my height, And vanish into endless night. [Bridge] And when the dawn begins to break, The man awakes, the beast will slake. But in my chest, I feel the scar, The wolf is there, no matter how far. I’ll fight the change, I’ll try to hold, But every moon, the story’s told. [Chorus] Hear the howl that splits the sky, Claws that tear and teeth that bite. On four legs I run the night, The wolf is born, the man takes flight. No more thoughts, no more regret, Just the instinct, just the threat. I am the shadow, I am the dread, The werewolf's curse inside my head. [Outro] The bones will crack, the fur will grow, The moon will call, and I must go. A man by day, a wolf by night, Forever bound to the pale moonlight. Forever bound to the pale moonlight.
