Ckimera - Lion

If love is evil, than I am a lion
You've got me on the floor and I'm dying, crying
It can be- unsettling
To see- a part of yourself
In- someone else

It's a tough road to hold
As I roll with the flow
You know I want it all, just push me up against the wall
Push your body up against mine
There's a bomb between us, ready to blow
And we're out of time, about to explode
Burning up inside my soul (so-oh-oul)
Desire quenched by fire
Rising from the dead in the water
Now that I've escaped from my personal slaughter
But I'm still alive, yeah I'm still here
Might make everything bad, lost outside the clear
I don't want your heart between my teeth
I just want mine back between my lungs
Just a breath of air caressing your ear
Lost in my head and speaking in tongues
(It's a tough) Road to hold, as we go
Pumping from the speakers of the ra-di-o (Pop!)
Bleeds from the speakers and fills up the sky
As we scream dance prance along this high
That we created inside ourselves, from the freedom we're alive
Need no one else but you

It can be- unsettling
To see- a part of yourself
In- someone else
You and I are different, aren't we? Than the rest
I can feel my red blood pumping, underneath my chest

If love is evil, than I am a lion
You've got me on the floor and I'm dying, crying
If love is evil, than I am a lion
I hate myself for always shying, crying
And I'm lying on the floor and I feel like I'm dying
Douse my sorrows with liquor; call me the lonely lion
Want more, give me more, I need more from you
Me- us- what we want- need, sickness burning
Taste it on your lips with delirious poison
And all the boys and all the girls they all love the lonely lion

I need the dark to see the stars
I'll be damned if I curl up and wait to starve
There's no rest for the wicked, I don't mean to be blunt
Not gonna sleep anymore now I'm on the hunt
Rip it off fast! The pain's just a myth
Do you even know who you're dealing with
With a mane for a crown, I can't help but love how
I can cut it all down and not feel a thing
Would you love me if I ruled the pride
Despite my thirst I feel like I'm drowning inside
But passion on fire will only get you so far
You're a tall glass of water they don't serve at the bar
You told me: You and I are different- aren't we- than the rest
So damn hungry for someone I know could love and save me from myself
But this hunger is far too much; I wish I wouldn't wish for more
And I'm finally beginning to learn, that you cannot love without a war
Need no one else but you

It can be- unsettling
To see- a part of yourself
In- someone else
You and I are different, aren't we? Than the rest
I can feel my red blood pumping, underneath my chest

If love is evil, than I am a lion
You've got me on the floor and I'm dying, crying
If love is evil, than I am a lion
I hate myself for always shying, crying
And I'm lying on the floor and I feel like I'm dying
Douse my sorrows with liquor; call me the lonely lion
Want more, give me more, I need more from you
Me- us- what we want- need, sickness burning
Taste it on your lips with delirious poison
And all the boys and all the girls they all love the lonely lion

Make me feel wanted (I- I want ... I just want... to feel...)
Make me feel something (SOMETHING)
Make me feel like a king (Make me feel like I'm a king, queen)
Make me feel anything (ANYTHING)
I'll just go by myself
Crying out for hell-elp (You told me: "there's no room in your life" for me)
I'll face the unknown (But I've always been larger than life)
Even if I am alone
It just hurts when you say (But the way that I see you)
I never liked you anyways (Almost... as a mirror, to myself)
Build a world of my own (For a lover or a brother or if I had, had a sister)
Better than you'll ever know (Don't make me eat you)
I'll - go by myself (I bleed rainbows)
You - ate my heart out (You ate my heart out...)
How I wanted love and fell (I just wanna know how it tastes)
Get back up and give 'em hell

Just cut me open and paint me with my blood til I'm a masterpiece
Fast, flash, bare your grin, push me down sink in your teeth

(We're never alone)

Breathe in the warm stormy breeze

If love is evil, than I am a lion
You've got me on the floor and I'm dying, crying
If love is evil, than I am a lion
I hate myself for always shying, crying
And I'm lying on the floor and I feel like I'm dying
Douse my sorrows with liquor; call me the lonely lion
Want more, give me more, I need more from you
Me- us- what we want- need, sickness burning
Taste it on your lips with delirious poison
And all the boys and all the girls they all love the lonely lion

It can be- unsettling
To see- a part of yourself
In- someone else
You and I are different, aren't we? Than the rest
I need to see that part of me (In you) for myself

And all the boys and all the girls they all love the lonely lion
