Before the Darkness Settles In Lyrics by Bill Mallonee

Forest Full of Wolves

0

You can tell by the way...the light behaves
Winter? She'll come early this year
Start chopping that wood before the snows descend
Before the darkness settles in

It's all a slippery handsake deal at best
When you try to stake a claim upon this land
If the Rio keeps her promise there could be a gathering in
Before the darkness settles in

There'll be trials & tribulations you gotta reckon with
But most of those are usually within
You try not to think of what got lost & all that might have been
Before the darkness settles in...

Now, the milk of human kindness is curdled to the bone
And the Autumn light is paler than I've ever known
Pull on your heavy coat before the storms descend
Before the darkness settles in
