To go along with a song, 'cause why not!

"When the wolf's at your door" by Voodoo Pup feat. Dangerous Moonlight

Lyrics:
VERSE 1
When the sun sinks low and you’re back in your home
You can hear it again, that knock at your door
You can’t bear the feel of being alone
When the work is done but you want something more

The whispers and stares they can take their toll
And not to mention those opinion polls
Do you throw stones and break up your home?
Or open the door and turn off the phone?

CHORUS 1
When you’re dealt a bad hand
Just when do you fold?
When the wolf’s at your door
Out there in the cold

Do you turn on the lights
and let him inside?
Do you hang on
Or get off of the ride?

When push comes to shove
Between your mask and your love,
Do you seize the day
or turn that poor wolf away?

VERSE 2
When you toss and turn but you just can’t sleep
With a hole in your soul and a whole lot to lose
You’ve come this far but the drop is steep
From the morning after to the evening news

All that power means a whole lot of nothin’
Against the howl of the wolf and the huffin’ and puffin’
Is your house made of twigs or a good solid brick?
Will this be the scandal that finally sticks?

CHORUS 2
If you leave behind
What you hide behind
Will you land on your feet
And stay upright?

If you keep your mouth shut
Does that mean you’re just
The same tricky fox
That no one can trust?

When push comes to shove,
Between your mask and your love,
will you seize the day
or turn that poor wolf away?

SOLO

BRIDGE
So what do you say, are you a fish or a shark?
Who gives a damn if the neighbors talk?

You’re hanging by a thread
Oh you’re messin’ with his head

[sax riff]

So what if they say you’re just a snake in the grass?
Small price to pay to be free at last     

So what’ll it be?

CHORUS 3
When you’re dealt a bad hand
Just when do you fold?
When the wolf’s at your door
Out there in the cold

Do you turn on the lights
and let him inside?
Do you hang on
Or get off of the ride?

When push comes to shove
Between your mask and your love,
Do you seize the day
or turn that poor wolf away?
