Lion Lyrics

Chalk Farm Lion

I compromised and wiped away the ashes
I felt the lies burn and bore the flame
I want to cry but then why should I?
The men that I want to try to live like
They found them a reason to go on
They felt they might somehow have a purpose

I feel that I'm more - Then I say nothing's wrong

Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
And I'm thinking for myself and now
I'm not running for you
Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
Let the circus run without this clown
I'm not running away

I'm calm inside whenever I can focus
I turn my reflection on and off
I hope I might one day be courageous

I feel that I'm more - Then I say nothing's wrong

Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
And I'm thinking for myself and now
I'm not running for you
Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
Let the circus run without this clown
I'm not running away

And I believe I'm coming
to fight for what I feel.
I shouldn't feel alone,
At least I know what I believe is real.

I feel that I'm whole - And I say I'm not running

Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
And I'm thinking for myself and now
I'm not running for you
Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
Let the circus run without this clown
I'm not running away
Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
And I'm thinking for myself and now
I'm not running for you
Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
Let the circus run, and run, and run, and run, and run, and

Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
Hey Lion, Hey Lion
Hey Lion I can't believe you anyway
