Wolves, Lower
Lyrics
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, don’t get caught.
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, let us out.
Wilder lower wolves. Here’s a house to put wolves out the door.
In a corner garden, wilder lower wolves.
House in order. House in order. House in order. House in order.
Down there they’re rounding a posse to ride.
(repeat verse)
Suspicion yourself, suspicion yourself, don’t get caught.
Suspicion yourself, suspicion ourselves, suspicion myself.
Wilder lower wolves. Here’s a house to put wolves out the door.
In a corner garden, wilder lower wolves.
House in order. House in order. House in order. House in order.
Down there they’re rounding a posse to ride.
