A timeless and beautiful ballad about the doubts and despairs of the wolf at heart in a world of narrow-minded humans.

This was the first major song I made with midi sequencer, using an Alesis Quadrasynth Plus Piano. I still have that thing in the attic, and it should have the setting for the song still saved... if it still works.

Edit: It doesn't :-(

Lyrics

Verse 1
Alone in a world meant for others
You stand, forsaken by God.
You howl but nobody bothers.
They smile and distantly nod.

For it's true, inside you're not like them,
Not happy with playing your role
And though you wish truth would strike them
You hide from them heart and soul.

Refrain
Who could you ask when they lack understanding?
Who could you tell that you're not of their kind?
More than just human shape, not only hairless ape.
What could they find inside your mind?

What should you do when others turn against you?
What to believe when all they know is hate?
Could your belief be true? Is there a wolf in you?
What is your fate at heaven's gate?

Verse 2
Keep the lie, do all to preserve it
For they say, alone you are strong.
The pain, they mean you deserve it
And claim that you don't belong

For deep inside they all fear you,
Superstitious and scared like a child.
Self-righteously deaf, they can't hear you
And nor hear the cry from the wild

Refrain
Who could you ask when they lack understanding?
Who could you tell that you're not of their kind?
More than just human shape, not only hairless ape.
What could they find inside your mind?

What should you do when others turn against you?
What to believe when all they know is hate?
Could your belief be true? Is there a wolf in you?
What is your fate at heaven's gate?

Coda
Open your mind, let it flow in
And your dream comes true.
One of a kind, free from sin.
Feel the wolf in you.

Cry out your tears, let them come through
End of all fears, life is true.
One of a kind, free from sin
For the wolf is you!
