Wolf in Sheep's Clothing

Wolf in Sheep's Clothing - Stefan Andersson

Innocence is a thing the soul must guard

A heart is fragile and easily marred

There are those who wound and steal

What they hurt is hard to heal

They feed on your trust and your need to believe

Use your dreams to dupe and deceive

They'll show you the moon and your very own star

Tell you it's time to prove who you are

Then point to the wind and the open sky

While they tie your wings so you can't fly

All the while daring you not to cry

At first you hardly notice the pain

'Cause they're so good at how to explain

Behind a mask of love they hide their loathing

Beware of wolves in sheeps' clothing

They'll never give you room to complain

The blood of betrayal leaves no stain

Behind a mask of love they hide their loathing

Beware of wolves in sheeps' clothing

Here they come with their encircling arms

While they sink their teeth with their worldly charms

They'll hold you close while tear you apart

Cradle your head while they rip out your heart

Keep feeding you hope while they bleed you dry

All the while looking you in the eye

Daring you not to utter a cry
