men and mountains - i cried wolf until i could not speak lyrics

between you and i
these past few years
i’ve been falling apart all along
and it feels as if the bridges i’ve burned
have all been rebuilt
behind my own crooked spine
the ashes i spill
from my weary hands
keep leading me back to the same places
i’ve been running in circles
unknowingly crossing them over and over
i’ve been collecting splinters and bruises
but i’ll never learn a thing
no i’ll never learn
well friend, i am running out of masks and matches
and that face you’ve known me to keep well hidden
is slowly approaching the surface

the lies i’ve told to hide it
the walls i’ve built around it
to keep it from breaking my skin
are failing by the minute

between you and i
these past few years
i’ve been digging my grave all along
and it feels as if the ties i’ve cut
have fixed themselves around my naked neck
the dirt i spill from my bleeding hands
is evidence of the lies i’ve buried
i’m running in circles again
and i’m starting to believe that i’ll never know

the lies i’ve told to hide it
the walls i’ve built around it
to keep it from breaking my skin
are failing by the minute

wolves are out to get me
they sink their teeth in
from under sheep’s clothing
they hunt from within
we were the salt that sank in their bones
you were so lost and oh so alone
we were the lies that you have told
so bury them here and they’ll never know
i’ve cried wolf
’cause you know that i have no choice
i’ve cried wolf
now, i’m finally losing my voice
