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
