[Intro]
[low growls under the breath]
I smell fear
in the treeline
teeth on the breeze
blood on the skyline (hey)
[Verse 1]
Boot prints
in a circle
ash bones
in the snow
You called
to the hunger
now it’s living
in your throat
Hear that
little cracking
every promise
that you broke
Every lie
that you swallowed
grows claws
in the cold
[Pre-Chorus]
You fed the dark
piece by piece
Name on the bark
scar on the trees
Face in the glass
starting to go
Eyes gone black
you already know
[Chorus]
Wendigo
I feel it crawl under my skin
Wendigo
I gave it all, it wants again
I’m hollowed out
my heart, my home
That hunger howls
it calls my bones
Wendigo
I’m not alone
[Verse 2]
Jaw wired
with the wanting
tongue tastes
rust and stone
Your friends
look like offerings
every heartbeat
overgrown
Run fast
through the branches
but you can’t
outpace the sound
Of your name
being twisted
like a neck
snapped down
[Pre-Chorus]
You fed the dark
thought it was small
Just one wish
just one more call
Now every step
echoes below
Footprints deep
where the wild things go
[Chorus]
Wendigo
I feel it crawl under my skin
Wendigo
I gave it all, it wants again
I’m hollowed out
my heart, my home
That hunger howls
it calls my bones
Wendigo
I’m not alone
[Bridge]
[guitars drop, electronic pulse and growls]
GROWL FOR ME
(let it in, let it in)
HOWL WITH ME
(torn from within)
You’re not scared
you’re starving
you’re starved
for the sin
You are the forest
you are the trap
You are the monster
staring back
[Chorus]
Wendigo
I feel it crawl under my skin
Wendigo
I gave it all, it wants again
I’m hollowed out
my heart, my home
That hunger howls
it calls my bones
Wendigo
I hear you speak
through cracked teeth and winter snow
Wendigo
I am the beast
I am the wendigo
