This is about both world wars, everyone I've shown it to has made what they will of it, so I expect the same from you, this means amount of views = amount of posts ffs
The company of wolves
V1
Tall trees and bitter snow
A land torn by friend and foe
A squad of seven camp
They are lost, they have no map
A wolf with a lucky kill
Returning to his pack with a prideful feel
He sits and howls to all
and his brothers heed his call
Chorus
Man and wolf alike
They run into the night
The enemy calls "heil hitler"
and that scares them even deeper
the men start a fire
the wolves are cold
Their all playing the survival game
*whispers* or are they?
V2
The men ready their guns
A shuffle in the bushes
As the wolves appear and sit near the fire
the mean ease their clutches
The wolves wont bite the hand that feeds
The men wont kill unless they need
They sit together
They sit at ease
Endverse
Then a bullet breaks the silence
Kills a wolf, kills the temporary alliance
the men draw arms and the wolves they prounce
the german man drowns in his blood
More appear and overwhelm
The men die alike and one wolf survives
HE cries for his family
The pain in his heart, he cant live alone, death
Thus died the company of wolves
Thus died the company of wolves
To explain, the song is depicting a moment, lost soldiers in the middle of WW in a german forest, and a wolfpack with little food, their both trying just to survive, and the humans and wolves bond for a minute in their likeness, and they are seperated by the threat, then it becomes obvious how different they are, the wolves just want to survive, the men want more.
It's a beutiful moment ruined by humanity, by greed, its trying to depict the bigger picture, allot of people think its cool so meh.
