The Human Computers - Occasional Feast

Have you heard?
The wolves are coming back
These different waves just passed through our shack
It's getting colder and dark outside
And the fear drives us closer
Remain tongue tied
There's a shiver in the darkness
A howling in the night
Our feet becoming restless
I lay my hopes aside

And the call of our herd means everything to us
Distance seems quite absurd
Now I'm afraid to ask
And the call of my herd just drives me far

I can feel your paws touching my shoulder
Your teeth beneath my skin
Your breath on my neck
Makes it feel so paper thin
As you look down on us as on your occasional feast
My shaking little neighbour is just as poor as me

And the call of our herd means everything to us
Distance seems quite absurd
Now I'm afraid to ask

As you put your roaring head through the door of our place
There's a million frightened eyes just staring at your face
I hear you scream into the darkness
There're so many of us
And you know that we're lost

A sudden warmth is coming over me, flooding our shack
There's too little place for knowledge to fit inside our heads
As lay my body down, sleep forever in the field
Never knowing what, what it yields

And the call of our herd means everything to us
Distance seems quite absurd
Now I'm afraid to ask
And the call of my herd just drives me far
Distance seems quite absurd, we're drifting in the dark
And the screams of our hearts just perished in the flood
And the call of my herd just drives me far
