[Verse 1] Your mama is a werewolf with long, sharp teeth I'm up all night when the world should sleep I curse the darkness when it's killin' time I got a river of fear runnin' through my mind When the moon shines through those parting clouds I hear the call and I howl out loud I stalk the streets where the shadows lie And I pray to God that that sun will rise But that sun don't always rise [Chorus] If my good intentions go runnin' wild If I cause you pain, my own sweet child Won't you promise me you'll be the one? My silver bullet in the gun [Verse 2] When I wake and, and I'm reborn My body aches and my soul is torn I search the void for any clues And I feel ashamed for what I've put you through This curse a gift from my father's kin They fought the beast I feel within
But we don't talk about it and we don't call its name We just carry on, hopin' it'll change But we know it'll never change [Chorus] If my good intentions go runnin' wild If I cause you pain, my own sweet child Won't you promise me you'll be the one? My silver bullet in the gun Would you strike me down right where I stand? Would you change me back, make me kind again? Won't you promise me you'll be the one? My silver bullet in the gun [Chorus] If my good intentions go runnin' wild If I cause you pain, my own sweet child Won't you promise me you'll be the one? My silver bullet in the gun Would you strike me down right where I stand? Would you change me back, make me kind again? Won't you promise me you'll be the one? My silver bullet in the gun
