I am a lion and I want to be free Do you see a lion when you look inside of me? Outside the window just to watch you as you sleep Cause I am a lion born from things you cannot be How can I sleep at night, there's a war inside my head I found the lion hidden right beneath my bed I will not hide myself from the tears you have shed Cause I am a lion and you are dead
Here's a story of everything we'll ever be You can hide but some of us can never leave And if you go I don't need those little things They remind me of all our little dreams Can you hear the words? All I can say We can watch the world, even if they walk away Forget about tomorrow, tomorrow is today You were born a lion and a lion you will stay
I am a lion and I want to be free Do you see a lion when you look inside of me? Outside the window just to watch you as you sleep Cause I am a lion born from things you cannot be
Remember an army of all those little kids? Livin' life like they only get a little bit It's hard to fight when you're born in the middle and I'd rather die than watch you givin' in I'm sorry daughter but your fathers not the same I can look into your eyes and I swear that I will change But tomorrow is tomorrow so forgive me if I say You can hide beneath the covers while I hide behind the pain After all only so much we can say Words can lose their meaning once you walk away Promise me that you'll love me, watch me as I fade I'll give you all the things that these lions never gave The hands on the clock & the things we cannot change Tear it all to pieces and take back what I made If there's one thing I'd keep, it's you that I would save Cause I am just a lion and a lion I will stay
I am a lion and I want to be free Do you see a lion when you look inside of me? Outside the window just to watch you as you sleep Cause I am a lion born from things you cannot be
Hey! I never meant to let go All I want & you're all I'll ever wanna know Can't hide in the attic of a pretty home.. of a pretty home.. of a pretty home.. Hey! I never meant to let go All I want & you're all I'll ever wanna know Can't hide in the attic of a pretty home.. of a pretty home.. of a pretty home.. Hey!..
I am a lion and I want to be free Do you see a lion when you look inside of me? Outside the window just to watch you as you sleep Cause I am a lion born from things you cannot be
