King Diamond (Band)
Follow the Wolf
[Verse 1]
The morning slowly came, my life about to end
Then the wind would change, all but one had left
The angelic wolf had stayed, without a word she said
"Follow me, follow the wolf."
[Verse 2]
And so I followed the wolf, up the wooded mountain side
Close to the top, she suddenly stopped
Sun to the East, man and beast
Just two silhouettes in a landscape never to forget
Like dark decaying teeth, I saw the village beneath
A few and distant roads all leading away from here
(All away from here)
Nobody in the streets, decay
[Bridge]
I must follow the wolf again, I must follow her till the end
The end
[Verse 3]
The wolf had turned around, facing higher ground
And there it was, the House of God
In awe I looked as time had stopped
Follow me
[Guitar Solo: Andy LaRocque]
[Verse 4]
I had never seen a Church like this before
"This place is terrible" inscribed above the door
Like dark decaying teeth, I saw the Church within
A few distant thoughts, inviting me into sin
(Into sin)
Nobody in the church, decay
[Guitar Solo: Glen Drover]
[Outro]
Shrouded in a gloomy light, as if my final night
I wonder if God was ever here?
Did he turn away in fear, did he turn away in fear?
