  • Who's gonna listen when you run out of lies?
    Who's gonna hear you, when your words seem worthless?
    Who's gonna save you when you're out of time?
    And who's gonna want you, when you're on your knees, begging

    "Oh, please take me at my word, I'm desperate
    I swear, I never meant to hurt no one, no
    Oh, please stay for what it's worth, I'm desperate"
    You're on your own

    So don't you call my name
    I will take you down
    Should've known that you've been dancing with a wolf
    So don't you call my name
    I will take you down
    I'm not your friend, you burned a bridge
    I chew you up and spit you out
    Oh woah oh woah oh
    There's no love for a liar, no love for a liar
    Oh woah oh woah oh
    There's no love for a liar, no love
    So don't you call my name
    (Call my name)

    No one to listen when you're running your mouth
    No one to hear you when your words seem worthless
    No one to save you when you're coming down
    No one would want you, when you're on your knees, begging

    "Oh, please take me at my word, I'm desperate
    I swear, I never meant to hurt no one, no
    Oh, please stay for what it's worth, I'm desperate"
    You're on your own

    So don't you call my name
    I will take you down
    Should've known that you've been dancing with a wolf
    So don't you call my name
    I will take you down
    I'm not your friend, you burned a bridge
    I chew you up and spit you out
    Oh woah oh woah oh
    There's no love for a liar, no love for a liar
    Oh woah oh woah oh
    There's no love for a liar, no love
    So don't you call my name

    Fool me once, it's shame on you
    Fool me twice, and let the wolves come crashing through
    Fool me once, it's shame on you
    Fool me twice, and let the wolves come

    (So don't you call my name
    I will take you down
    Should've known that you've been dancing with a wolf)

    Don't you call my name
    I will take you down
    Should've known that you've been dancing with a wolf
    So don't you call my name
    I will take you down
    I'm not your friend, you burned a bridge
    I chew you up and spit you out
    Oh woah oh woah oh
    There's no love for a liar, no love for a liar
    Oh woah oh woah oh
    There's no love for a liar, no love
    So don't you call my name
    (Call my name, call my name) Writer/s: ALEXANDER WILLIAM GASKARTH, MICHAEL JOSEPH GREEN, NICO HARTIKAINEN
