Bears & Wolves

You don't know fear 'til it's calling from behind
And the streets that are familiar seem to stretch out at night
They dragged her to the woods, they couldn't leave Anne on her own
And the press paraded pictures of a dead Marilyn Monroe

And I will always choose the bear
I will always choose the wolves
No matter what they do, they wouldn't blame my clothes
I would rather choose to die
Let my body decompose
'Cause even when you're ash, thеy will never let you go, no
Ba-ba-di-ba, ah

Careful of the stranger, a face you've never met
You've seen them in your churches
They're sleeping in your beds
And history will teach you, "They were all such willing wives"
Sacagawea was a child when her body lost its rights

I will always choose the bear
I will always choose the wolves
No matter what they do, they wouldn't blame my clothes
I would rather choose to die
Let my body decompose
'Cause even when you're ash, they will never let you go

The waves, let them take me
The walls, let them fall
It may not be many, but enough to doubt them all
And when I tell the beasts all the things you would do
They would cry as well, and fear you too

I will always choose the bear
I will always choose the wolves
No matter what they do, they wouldn't blame my clothes
I would rather choose to die
Let my body decompose
'Cause even when you're ash, they will never let you go

I will always choose the bear
I will always choose the wolves
No matter what they do, they wouldn't blame my clothes
I would rather choose to die
Let my body decompose
'Cause even when you're ash, they will never let you go
'Cause even when you're ash, they will never let you go, no
