Lion's Den Lyrics

When I was just about that age
Cursing at the world through a lion's gaze
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 and down
Feeling I could die
All of the things I'm feeling inside my beating heart feed my head lies
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy
I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy

I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
I was just a boy back then
Growing in the midst of a lion's den
Everything I said was a fiction
Who would even listen
I don't really need no friends
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 and down
Feeling I could die
All of the things I'm feeling inside my beating heart feed my head lies
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy
I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy
I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
I'm falling for my own lies
Saying that I'm strong but then
I'm hiding from my past lies
Scared to see of who I've been
I'm falling for my own lies
Saying that I'm strong but then
I'm hiding from my past lies
Scared to see of who I've been
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy
I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy
I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy
I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
I don't want to lose myself
I don't even know how to not be my own enemy
I don't want to lose my head
I don't even know where to run from my own memories
