Lion's Den Lyrics

I can't eat, I can't sleep

I can't dream, I can't leave

I'm shackled and bound, trapped in the sound

Going round and round then down to the ground

I'm lost and exhausted, my thoughts are toxic

I can't stop the nausea, now I got to vomit

I promise, I'm not contagious

Just lost in the pages of aimless ages

But stop, wait, just for a second

While I catch my breath, I have a confession

The stress is less when I embrace the depression

My chest gets rest when I partake in obsession

Visualize the imagery, picture it vividly

Me hanging in a tree from a rope that's limiting

My air flow, but I won't dare choke

Cause I'm not scared, no I don't fear the arrow

You can lock me up, throw away the key

You can box me up, never let me free

You can throw me in the lion's den

With other dying men, but I'll survive and win

You can lock me up, throw away the key

You can box me up, never let me free

You can throw me in the lion's den

With other dying men, but I'll survive and win

The sun rises, the sun sets

No one cries, everyone forgets

Life goes on, the strife grows strong

The lights go off then the right turn wrong

And isn't it a mystery, how misery

Gets watered down when entered into history

Listen please to these words as they resonate and levitate

For heaven's sake, let them take you to a better place

See this life is a track circle, we try to get past hurdles

Some of us are fast learners, others commit mass murders

Cause they can't stand the pressure

This life will test your measure, so don't miss the lecture

Even if it seems hopeless, like hope is broken

Don't give up on dreams, no don't forget the notion

That just like the ocean, hope can bust open

Doors that were closed with one abrupt motion

You can lock me up, throw away the key

You can box me up, never let me free

You can throw me in the lion's den

With other dying men, but I'll survive and win

You can lock me up, throw away the key

You can box me up, never let me free

You can throw me in the lion's den

With other dying men, but I'll survive and win

See the key my friend is never give in

Never give up or you never gone' win

If you never begin then you'll never contend

Got to get out, stop living within

I made myself free by design, free in my mind

Leave it behind, I can see though I'm blind

Walk through the line, don't get caught up in drama

Keep on as I leap through time

Forget the past, burn it to ash, and fast

Or it will last, move past the bull - ish

it's foolish, the truth is the path

Don't be stupid, life is to short to get caught up in that crying wind

Keep your head up, chest out, even if you lost within the lion's den

You can lock me up, throw away the key

You can box me up, never let me free

You can throw me in the lion's den

With other dying men, but I'll survive and win

You can lock me up, throw away the key

You can box me up, never let me free

You can throw me in the lion's den

With other dying men, but I'll survive and win
