Lion's Den (Clean)

Lion's Den (Clean) - Grace VanderWaal

Lyrics by：Grace VanderWaal/Alexis Idarose Kessleman

Composed by：Grace VanderWaal/Alexis Idarose Kessleman

I don't know how to be with myself

Colors aren't as bright as they used to be

Forget the girl they wanted me to be

And I don't know how to be okay

The audience in my head looking up at me

Pretending just for them because they need me

I'm human and I'm falling

But you tell me I'm flying

But it's building

And I can't breathe

Wanna feel the way that I used to be

And so I go out

Get f**ked up so that

Weirdly I can feel like a kid again

And the lights are like magic

Nothing's wrong

Twisted traumatic

And then the morning comes

And it's bad again

Dancing in the lion's den

Dancing in the lion's den

And I guess we're all just tryna work it out

Tryna get back to our child self

Chasing the feeling finding the meaning

But just continuing to corrupt ourselves

And I still remember how it all felt

The sun on my skin an ice cream will melt

And now I'm at parties stay past 3 A.M

And I'm smoking too much just to feel it again

But I'm human and I'm falling

And you tell me I'm flying

But it's building

And I can't breathe

Wanna feel the way that I used to be

And so I go out

Get f**ked up so that

Weirdly I can feel like a kid again

And the lights

And the lights

Are like magic

Are like magic

Nothing's wrong

Nothing's wrong

Twisted traumatic

And then the morning comes

And it's bad again

Dancing in the lion's den

Dancing in the lion's den

Dancing in the lion's den

Dancing in the lion's den

Dancing in the lion's den

Dancing in the lion's den
