We Are Wolves
02:26
|
|||
Awoo to the daylight
Awoo to the sun
We howl into this bright world
To command everyone
Awoo to the nightbirds
Awoo to the moon
We rule in the shadows
With a wild, winsome tune
We are proud
We are wolves
As mighty as thunder
As fast as the wind
We sound, and our enemies erode
Our namesake to honor
Our stature to prove
In the stark preservation of our code
Awoo to the foxes
Awoo to the bears
We howl at these, our neighbors
Our dominion to declare
Awoo to the woodlands
Awoo to the sky
We rule upon the mountain
With a young warrior cry
We are proud
We are wolves

Fang's Decree
01:24
|
|||
I will not hear another word from my unmannered children
I shall not suffer the faults you refuse to unlearn
You must tread through the world adolescent, without our attendance
And alter your blasphemous ways if you wish to return
We've wielded ferocity for a thousand years
Our splendor, all recognize
Our power, all do fear
This is the way of our kind that has stood through the ages
This the decree that our pack does unshakably know
Those who refuse to abide by the code that upholds us
Are banished, and so do we soundly declare
You must go

The Hibiscus Grove
00:50
|
|||
There's a place at the top of the world
Where hibiscus trees grow tall
The rivers run wild, and the birds sing their song
And the whims of the earth bind them all
In the wind, lies the scent of pine trees
In the ground, lie the bluebells fair
The most beautiful place in the whole wide world
A haven beyond all compare
The most beautiful place in the whole wide world
A haven beyond all compare

The Woes of Ichabod
00:59
|
|||
She is my cat and I want her back
She is not very safe with a young wolf pack
Would you please go away, and give her back to me?
Though it's true you look less like wolves, than pups
I'm afraid that you're going to eat her up
If you can't prove me wrong, I'd prefer that you go away

Home
02:28
|
|||
All my life, I've been waiting
For proof of my superb revelation
That we are not beholden
To old notions of one another
And after this ruse dies away,
Peace and prosperity's all that remains
It's time to answer the call
Beyond rivers, forests, and mountain halls
We'll go home
We'll go home
We should go to the honey
This strange new thing, and its wondrous creation
The scent is rich and golden
Reminds me of love and mother
And now that the food's gone away
This tall, mighty creature is all that remains
It's time to answer the call
Beyond rivers, forests, and mountain halls
We'll go home
We'll go home
We'll go home
We'll go home

Ode to Harper
01:16
|
|||
When you get sad, she's by your side
Just treat her well, and she will abide
A creature not at all like humankind
This little guardian angel of mine
Though communication cannot be conventionally known
We've found a way around this dull design
The same device can be applied to the creatures I have found
They could be guardian angels of mine
Hear me, child
They've robbed me, and left me defiled
My love and joy has died
Oh, little guardian angel of mine

Questions in Your Eyes
02:04
|
|||
I see you're confused
I know that I've failed you
And dash'd your expectations
Of finding a home
That will prize and revere you
A right that we all are due
But don't be afraid
For as long as I'm with you
I'll make it my vocation
To splinter these bars
That demean, harm and cage you
A design of my kind that I rue
You're the world to me
In the face of this disaster,
You stay curious and wise
So I hope to be
At least partially able to answer
The questions in your eyes
But I may never be
Even partially able to answer
The questions in your eyes

Mira's Lament
02:22
|
|||
The world is changing
The winds, the tides
What once was sacred
Now feels vein to abide
The rules that have guided our lives are transfigured anew
And we may never again return to the world we once knew
The days feel darker
And yet they're bright
It seems the shadows
Have seeped into the light
Our children are bared to the dangers that prosper unseen
We've condemned them to suffer alone 'cause they're not what we've been
But when rules are spoiled
And traditions implode
The way to thrive
Is to change the code
With these mutations
All strange, and new
One must be ready
To know them as true
Though our children's new ways may seem an attack on our being
If we try to open our hearts, we may learn what they mean

Home (Reprise)
00:47
|
|||
After we burst through this cage
Peace and prosperity's all that remains
We'll pad on back to the sprawl
Of the rivers, forests, and mountain halls
We'll go home
We'll go home

Open Your Mind
01:11
|
|||
Don't be afraid
Young warriors
The bars that confine you are signs that you're strong
Take back your space
You're glorious
A throne on a mountain is where you belong
The savages that bind you strip potential from the world
They think you're a mistake they can undo
But what they fail to realize, in keeping with their ignorance
Is the answer to these troubling times is you
When you open your mind
|

In the wind, lies the scent of pine trees

The most beautiful place in the whole wide world
A haven beyond all compare

Confrontation
00:50
|
|||
You
You stole my world
What did I ever do to you?
You
Have brought on me
A pain that you cannot undo
The time has come for you
To earn the fate you've long defied
I'm glad it falls on me
To see it through, and watch you die
|

Finale
02:45
|
|||
Change is violent
Strange, and rarely silent
And though you're strong,
You may still be afraid
But transformation
Shouldn't give occasion
For those around you
To trample what's remade
Some may fear you,
Belittle, and besmear you
For they have never
Seen your like before
But their foolish choices
Can never drown your voice, it's
Vain and fruitless
To loathe what's bound to be adored
