Friendly fire in the circle of trust
Verbal shrapnel cutting through our guts
Indifference to my wants and needs
Won’t let your bullshit cling to me
Happy to just watch us bleed

Keep the wolves at bay get through the day by saving face
Time can’t heal these wounds they’ve turned to scars you can’t erase

Keep the wolves at bay and live to fight another day
Time won’t heal these wounds they’re who you are

Save yourself don’t stick out your neck boy
Stand your ground don’t stick out your neck boy
Ebb and flow don’t stick out your neck boy
Stand your ground and look out for you

Kick those pricks they’re right next door
Attacking just because they’re bored
Crosshairs trained on all they see
Pettiness seems to cling to me
Indifference is their core belief

Keep the wolves at bay get through the day by saving face
Time can’t heal these wounds they’ve turned to scars you can’t erase

Keep the wolves at bay and live to fight another day
Time won’t heal these wounds they’re who you are

Save yourself don’t stick out your neck boy
Stand your ground don’t stick out your neck boy
Ebb and flow don’t stick out your neck boy
Protect yourself and look out for you

Stick and move evade their jabs
Smile to your face and your back is stabbed
Cuts you deep off at the knees
Won’t let your hatred cling to me
Intention hurts commitment bleeds

Keep the wolves at bay get through the day by saving face
Time can’t heal these wounds they’ve turned to scars you can’t erase

Keep the wolves at bay and live to fight another day
Time won’t heal these wounds they’re who you are

Save yourself don’t stick out your neck boy
Stand your ground don’t stick out your neck boy
Ebb and flow don’t stick out your neck boy
Pick your spots and look out for you

The happiest times that we ever had
laying waste to our own clan
Too deaf to hear too blind to see
Adolescence won’t be clinging to me
A broken branch on our family tree

Keep the wolves at bay get through the day by saving face
Time can’t heal these wounds they’ve turned to scars you can’t erase

Keep the wolves at bay and live to fight another day
Time won’t heal these wounds they’re who you are

Save yourself don’t stick out your neck boy
Stand your ground don’t stick out your neck boy
Ebb and flow don’t stick out your neck boy
Save yourself and look out for you

My friends are fucking with me
Families fucking with me
Teachers fucking with me
My boss is fucking with me
Colleagues fucking with me
Partners fucking with me
Strangers fucking with me
My Conscience is fucking with me
