Prologue: Love is When a Moth's Wings Cause a Tornado

(Instrumental)

Chapter 1: The Subway

I met you first in a crowd on Redstar Day.
At the time you were to me just another grey wolf.
Back then I'd never been so close to his kind before.
Well I guess I was just due for a change of life.

Ever so slowly and dull, I realized
Being close to you felt to me like fireworks.

Just say you wonder where we would be
If things had happened different.
Just think, what if the crowd flowed different
So we never heard each other?

A lot of firsts, I gotta say, a lot of stuff I didn't know before.
There's so much more to the wolf than meets the eye.
And yet, he's got his own subtle quirks. Of course, I learned them all.
It's as if he's always lost in the life he leads.

Ever so slowly and dull, I realized
You needed me just as much as I needed you.

Just say you wonder where we would be
If things had happened different.
Just think, what if the crowd flowed different
So we never heard each other?

Chapter 2: A Wolf in His Prime

Brush the snow off your fur.
Stare like you lost grip of thought.
Break away like your sorrowful tone.
Hey, where's the shine you once had?
Look at me, let me sing you a song.
Motions dull, maybe I can help your pain.

Cut away from what they keep calling real.
They don't see the subtle lies they adopt
Underneath every thought, every word.
"Man and beast" - a dreamt up line, nothing more.
No more real than all the masks we keep store.
Look at that, your life is there just for you.
Head on glass, looking out at the day.
Thoughts adrift, is he there or is he out?

Chapter 3: Wolf Whistle

Careful now,
Silver paws,
Keep your ears on my voice.

Don't look back.
Tread with care.
Heavyweight soul.

Fall on me
If you must
Before your frame gives way.

Sunlight stains
The cosmos rose
On the final ride you'll take one day.

Feel it in
The here and now.

Chapter 4: O Slayer, Valor is Dead

I wasn't there in time before

They plowed you off the right lane.

Feel your lupine pulse

Too weak to hold on longer.

I saw your motionless tail

And knew the worst had happened,

I wondered how I'd cope without you

When life will keep going on, so senseless.

You were 29.

It's been seven years since first we met.

You always had your gaze out there.

Now I can only hope you found it.

I hate this empty bed.

It's so hard to clear my head.

I can still make it through these days

When I can feel you in the sun's warm rays.
