Lion's Den

Well I was just about that age

Cursing at the world through a lion's cage

Telling myself I was the victim

Young intuition

Always seemed to lead that way

Tell me why every time

I look in my eyes

All of the things I've always hated in myself come alive

I'm looking up heading down feeling like I'll die

All of the things I feel inside my beating heart feed my head lies

I don't wanna lose myself

I don't even know how to not be my own enemy

I don't wanna lose my health

I don't even know where to run from my own memories

But I was just a boy back then

Roaring in the midst of a lion's den

Everything I said was a fiction

But who would even listen

I don't really need no friends

I'm falling for my own lies

Saying that I'm strong but then I'm

Hiding from my past life

Scared of seeing who I've been

I don't

I don't wanna run
