Wild Tigers I Have Known
Silence is a power and tool, for you, for you
Wild Tigers I Have Known, they see me down, messin’ around.
You keep your heart from your chest,
It’ll be gone, just like the rest,
Cause it’s a man’s world, say all the right words, and hold your heart from your chest,
The silence and the call, and their beauty, stands right and still for you.
Holding flames holding hands and hearts, and their bindings held tightly.
Lyin’ in the shady grass, their teeth grinding, insight is foreign,
Cause it’s the magic hand, that holds you gently, and turns one into man,
And their insight is bloody, to reach boldy, for truth spoken from mouth in his name.
There will be wise men singin’, bringing you luck now.
There will be wise men singin’, bringing you luck now.
There will be wise men, singin’ bringing you luck, bringing you luck.
Now it’s the precious end of time, hand in pocket, bright light.
Wild tigers I have known, they see me down messin’ around.

Eerie, haunting, melancholic and unbelievably sexy.
Chelsea Wolfe has always been a very versatile songwriter, from gothic doom to noise, to acoustic balads and everything inbetween. Wolf Moon

Fantastic album. Very reminiscent of 90s slowcore with an even more beautiful and dark edge. It's hard to find music like this nowadays but I'm very pleased to have found it. Jesse Mullen
