The Minneapolis based band Cloud Cult broke indie ground by hitting Billboard charts this past week with their newest album “Light Chasers.” I resonate with the song ‘Running with the Wolves’ and can’t stop hitting play on my ipod. The hauntingly beautiful music and profound lyrics will make anyone want to get up out of their cubicle and run away with the wolves.

It's time for us to go.
Left all our clothes.
With the car left by the road.

And we were running.
For a reason.
For the burning, in our veins.
And we were running.
For a reason.
We just need to get away.

Running with the wolves.
We're screaming at the stars.
Left all we own.
In a hole in our backyard.

And we were running.
For a reason.
Left our cubicles in little flaming piles.
And we were running.
For a reason.

I need to feel something different for just a little while.

I'm not coming home.
I'm staying with the wolves.
They can burn all my mail.
And disconnect my phone.

Tell my mom I'm sorry, sorry for leaving.
But I'm staying.

Now we're running to find meaning.
We're gone, and we're never coming back.

There is an amazing video to go with it. I find the contrast of the animation with the depth of the song fascinating.
