I am a lone wolf   a beauty and a beast   both hunter and hunted   soft tongue and sharp teeth   I'm toned from my travels   yet raw from this road   as I drink from storm puddles   and the stories I'm told      Help me figure this out   help me figure you in   you're a shadow to me   that I echo when I sing   Help me figure this out   help me figure you in   To this simple little melody      I have seen angels   they were sleeping in gutters   they were standing in bank lines   they were jumping from towers   they were calling like seagulls   but nobody heard   such a beautiful message   from such a common bird      We want freedom for ourselves   but we can't give it to each other   We want peace between nations   yet we battle with our lovers   we're blinded by billboards   and trying to get ahead   choking on ambition   and the words left unsaid      I am a lone wolf   a beauty and a beast   both hunter and hunted   soft tongue and sharp teeth   I'm toned from my travels   yet raw from this road   as I drink from storm puddles   and the stories I'm told      Help me figure this out   help me figure you in   you're a shadow to me   that I echo when I sing   help me figure this out   help me figure you in
