You said you can't get to heaven unless you get high
But there's no word of hell on the way back down
You said it's now or never
You only live once
Would you be so quick to walk over to my grave?
You said you'll never be younger than you are tonight
Now I've never felt weaker in all my life
You said it's only a one off, only a line
But now it's a circle, all of the time
Well, it's a one man cult and he's serving his line
It's a "Lust For Life" but it's a lifeless wine
He kissed her hand and then he found out her name,
It's Death and now he can't seem to wake [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/bring_me_the_horizon/the_fox_and_the_wolf.html ]
You can't run with the foxes and yet hunt with the wolf
You can't run with the foxes and yet hunt with the wolf
Tell me the truth
Are you addicted?
Tell me the truth
Are you addicted?
Tell me the truth
I think I'm losing my mind
I think I'm losing my mind
They say the poison's in the dosage and they must be right
Left with panic attacks and death riding our backs
It all looks so much worse on the way back down
I think I'm losing my mind
I think I'm losing my mind
They say the poison's in the dosage and they must be right
Left with panic attacks and death riding our backs
It all looks so much worse on the way back down
I'm so fucked up since I hit the ground
I'm so fucked up since I hit the ground
I think it's talking about greed, love lust, betayal, and lies of love.

I think it's about a drug addiction. How he feels like its a temptress and how it can destroy your life, he's asking himself to tell the truth and admit he's addicted to them. He's asking for help i think.

Obviously about a drug addiction. Cocaine to be more specific.

I think it has something to do with a really bad experience with drugs or something?

What i'm wondering about is the title of the song, it's also the title of a classic fairy tale in which a fox leads a wolf into trouble by showing it the temptation to take things like sheep. The wolf is greedy and this results in his eventual destruction. Interesting, no? Considering the relationship of the fairytale puts a stronger emphasis on the other person mentioned in the song.

What "you can't run with foxes and yet hunt with the wolfs" means ?

This is about the breaking point in his drug addiction. Hence the line:
now i've never felt weaker in all my life
you said it's only a one off, only a line
but now it's a circle, all of the time
Only a line (line of cocaine) but now it's a circle, meaning it's a never ending drug use.

Oli sykes is a thug, he is awesome and everything with his lyrics but he is a drug-pirate, i my self am a lyricist and an addict and iv realized that about ninty percent of his lyrics make drug refrences, some more subtle than others.
This song is obviously about how in primary school he had to do lines when he was naughty. Doing the naughty thing was like heaven, but when he got in trouble he felt like he was in hell. He was probably scared about the teachers calling his mum too, consequently leading in him fainting. Hence the line "revive me. "
