Alex Whest - Wolves at Bay (Official Lyric Video)

WOLVES AT BAY (Studio Version) — Alex Whest From the album INTERMEDIATE BLUE. Some songs are about romance. This one is about standing your ground. “Wolves at Bay” is an upbeat love song about home, freedom, loyalty, and protecting the life you’ve built with the person beside you. It’s about choosing your own peace in a world that keeps trying to sell fear, noise, pressure, and control. At its heart, this is still a love song. But it’s also about the idea that home is more than four walls — it’s the freedom to live, choose, and fight for what matters, together. 🎧 LISTEN TO ALEX WHEST https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/ale...

I found all that I needed With you right next to me. Our home is our freedom, Four walls, just me and you. Out there is where the wolves are, In here, we make it through. Let 'em howl outside our windows, We've heard it all before. They can circle in the dark, But they don't know who we are. We'll keep the wolves at bay, Stand our ground another day. With our guns fully loaded, They won't take this life away. Let 'em come, let 'em call, Let 'em throw themselves against the walls. As long as you're beside me, Let them do what they want, It won't matter at all. They'll tell us what we're missing, They'll tell us what we need. Sell us fear and call it freedom, Give us chains and call them dreams. There'll be letters through the doorway, There'll be voices in our heads, There'll be hands that try to pull us From the life we hold in our hands. Let 'em howl outside our windows, We've heard it all before. They can circle in the dark, But they don't know what we're fighting for. We'll keep the wolves at bay, Stand our ground another day. With our guns fully loaded, They won't take this life away. Let 'em come, let 'em call, Let 'em throw themselves against the walls. As long as you're beside me, Let them do what they want, It won't matter at all. And if these walls come crashing down, If there's nowhere left to hide, If every lock is broken And the whole world gets inside, I won't need a house for shelter, I won't need a door to close. Anywhere I stand beside you Is the only home I know. So let the wolves come closer, Let 'em bare their teeth tonight. I'm not scared of what's outside there With your hand holding mine. We'll keep the wolves at bay, Stand our ground another day. With our guns fully loaded, They won't take this life away. Let 'em come, let 'em call, Let 'em throw themselves against the walls. As long as you're beside me, Let them do what they want, It won't matter at all. We'll keep the wolves at bay, Through the dark and through the day. They can take the roof above us, They can take these walls away. Let 'em come, let 'em call, Let 'em tear down every wall. As long as you're beside me, Let them do what they want, It won't matter at all. I looked out the window, There's nothing more I need. Everything worth fighting for Is right here with me. ──────────────────── Written, composed and produced by Alex Whest From the album: INTERMEDIATE BLUE ℗ & © 2026 Xander van der Westhuizen professionally known as Alex Whest All rights reserved. ──────────────────── If this song means something to you, tell me: What are the “wolves” in your life?
