about

Pretty old song, changed lyrics and vocals when compiling this album and thought it would fit on this EP.

lyrics

man and mouse, in a rented house
I’ll try to write a song today
walls are thin, when you try to sing
and the central heating had to break down
call your friend, she won’t understand
what you are doing in here
never be at ease
when he’s still around, like a wolf waiting for me

Samantha showed up
the pre-arranged bell signal had slipped her mind
she’d been outside my apartment all night
smoking haze laced with PCP

she showed me the pictures
of average Joe’s and random strangers
but I failed to spot my wolf
anxiously, I gave her my last hypodermic needle

she’s back on her feet, out in the streets
I reached for the trash can and pulled out a needle
a singular shot with god-knows-what
I threw all the shit out of the window

hitman John crossed the street
tripwires, tripwires all around
you’re gone girl but there’s a still a wolf at my door
go get him son, get him outta here

I could have ended up as a nervous wreck,
an unemployed alcoholic, a low-life scum high on crack
but guess what motherfuckers?

I’m still around
you have to shoot me down

I’m still around
