Song of the Wolf
Here...
In the wilderness
I've learned
To survive
It's no real hardship
To stay
Alive
I will not judge myself
As others judge me
I will not see myself
As others see me
I am my own
I have everything
I need
Alone...
I hunt my prey
When I find food
I feast
I sing to myself
Of the joyful
Beast
I will not judge myself
As others judge me
I will not see myself
As others see me
I am my own
I have everything
I need
I love...
The barren wastes
From afar
You hear me cry
Only the birds
And the insects
Know why
I will not judge myself
As others judge me
I will not see myself
As others see me
I am my own
I have everything
I need
Gone...
The far horizon
Recedes as I advance
The wind blows away
Every trace
Of my dance
I will not judge myself
As others judge me
I will not see myself
As others see me
I am my own
I have everything
I need
