Wolves at the Door Lyrics

It looks like I found heaven
It's on the tip of my tounge
And it reminded me of
Whoa, the times I was young

I'm catching rain in my open mouth
I used to smile 'til the day I found out
I have no idea who the hell I've become

It's not who I was
It's not who I love

I wanna drown in a sea filled with novacaine
I wanna burn on a beach where the sand
As thousands of needles poking at my skin


I lie in bed to the sound
Of the wolves at my door
They are speaking in tounges
Oh, they join on my floor

I never thought it would come to this
Eyes more yellow than my own piss
They're making rounds
Just to even the score
Just open the door
Just open the door

I wanna drown in a sea filled with novacaine
I wanna burn on a beach where the sand
Is littered with razorblades
Littered with razorblades, blades
Littered with razorblades


I can't hold on
The path is clear
I'm giving up
It's been building for years
There's wolves at the door
I won't hide here in fear
Wolves at the door

I look at myself
And the things that I've done
So away far from you
We went into the sun

I forgave myself for all of my mistakes
When will I learn
When will I
When will I burn

I wanna drown in a sea filled with novacaine
I wanna burn on a beach where the sand
Is littered with razorblades

I gave up so much
So when my time would come
The black clouds would swallow
This flaming Hell-hole
Sometimes I feel like I'm losing my soul

Atleast that means
I still have a soul after all

woohoo first comment... these are the lyrics to the madden version... the actual version is far from this, and had to be censored a lot. The actual version is so much better lyrically and will make the song much clearer. i cant wait for this album XD

Eyes are yellow, they're my own pets

it sounds like he actually says "eyes more yellow than my own piss"

Cover art for Wolves at the Door lyrics by Senses Fail

the line is not "eyes are yellow, they're my own pets"

the correct lyrics are "I'm more yellow than my abyss"

the real lyrics are "i'm more yellow than my own piss"

The real lyrics are "I'm whore, fellow, with my salt crisps."

hahaha whore with salt crisps?! wow much funnier.. but i think the "more yellow than my own piss Sounds more like it, and makes more sense.

Holy crap. This song is so good. It may still be different from their old stuff but this is great.

The song definetly deals with Anxiety and Depression and how it can take a hold of you so much. It becomes a physical problem as well as mental. Buddy's refering to these intruding thoughts and anxiety as "Wolves at the door". they try to enter your mind and haunt you. Getting so frusterated that you have thoughts of dying in rediculous ways, such as burning on a beach where the sand is littered with razorblades etc. Powerful song, love the screaming, love the anger.

The correct lyrics are..."I'm more yellow than my own piss" first off. Secondly...I agree with the guy above. It's about depression and anxiety and the difficulties that come with it. I love this song...it's my favorite on the album that I've heard so far.

part 5, I believe that he realised after he changed not being his father, that there are a million other things he needs to change. Its overwhelming. He freaks out a lot, realising how many things he needs to change. ANd he tries not to let the bad things back into his mind (wolves).

It sounds like he relates some of the lyrics to lyncanthropy, which is always cool.
