Thrice: The Lion and The Wolf Meaning
The Lion and The Wolf Lyrics
The wolf's in your bed
The lion's claws are sharpened for war
The wolf's teeth are red
And what a monstrous sight he makes,
Mocking man's best friend
When both the wolf and lion crave
The same thing in...
-
It’s derived from Aesop’s fable. Both the wolf and the lion are selfish with only their own wants in mind, although they have the same desires. The conniving wolf feels justly in taking what it wants but The lion is smarter and knows they are both thieves in the end, so he steals the wolf’s takings and leaves him with the scraps.

This song indeed has a darker meaning to it than what meets the eye and ear.....
It's haunting tune only adds to the darkness...
The lion is the one who appears in physical form and torments you in the real world, you are not secure outside, but when you retreat to the shelter of isolation, the wolf or the voices in your head are lurking there with a dark purpose. The wolf is the one which feeds you the lies which result in suicidal thoughts and depression, and when they collaborate to make depression and fear your dominant feelings, the lion will be the one to rip out your flesh literally and the wolf will feed off your blood and use it ti manipulate you... -
This interpretation has been marked as poor. view anyway
