You Are the Wilderness (Acoustic) Lyrics
Stood at the edge of the valley
Looked at the ground below
Oh I was surrounded - there's nowhere left to go
I heard the wind chime beneath my feet
I felt the earth shake inside of me
I'll run forever but I won't get far
Cause if I don't have you, I will starve
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
For you, for you
Oh was it cold desperation?
That let the fire go out
Oh was it cold desperation
That let it burn for miles?
I am an animal for what I need
You are the wilderness inside of me
I run forever but I won't get far
Cause if I don't have you, I will starve
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
For you, for you
You are the wilderness
You are the wilderness
You are the wilderness
You are, you are the one
You are the one
Looked at the ground below
Oh I was surrounded - there's nowhere left to go
I heard the wind chime beneath my feet
I felt the earth shake inside of me
I'll run forever but I won't get far
Cause if I don't have you, I will starve
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
For you, for you
That let the fire go out
Oh was it cold desperation
That let it burn for miles?
I am an animal for what I need
You are the wilderness inside of me
I run forever but I won't get far
Cause if I don't have you, I will starve
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
There's a wolf in my heart
There's a wolf in my heart, for you
For you, for you
You are the wilderness
You are the wilderness
You are, you are the one
You are the one

For the sake of making it easy I'm going to interpret this as a guy but it might as well be a woman. The guy felt like he was cornered with no options left but to follow his love. He feels the entire feeling so strongly that the wind chimes her name and the ground shakes underneath because of the feelings are so strong. It's overwhelming and he wants to get away but by doing so it will destroy him. "there's a wolf in my heart" meaning in my opinion she is his pack, she is his primal inner mate. and he feels like howling into the night to vent out his madness for her. in the second verse he can either let their fire (love) go out or let it burn so bright that it van be seen miles away. His primal needs is her and he turn primitive when she's near.
