I quit the carnival and moved next door[00:00:37]
Thought I'd had enough but I wanted more[00:00:44]
So now I'm sneaking out at night[00:00:49]
I clean my face and shine my shoes[00:00:53]
And go where I'm not supposed to[00:00:56]
See I tamed a lion once I stole his roar[00:01:02]
Stripped his pride away but he found more[00:01:08]
So now he's out to take what's his and shove[00:01:14]
My future in my face and scare me back in my place[00:01:18]
So soon so soon you've got it beat 'til it eats you[00:01:25]
See I left my flaming sword beside your bed[00:01:37]
I woke to find it pressed against my neck[00:01:47]
You wept suggestion never works[00:01:52]
So now I'm trying something else[00:01:56]
I shut my eyes hold on[00:01:59]
Oh well[00:02:01]
And I felt a feather fall a tree trunk split[00:02:05]
Inside my lying mouth played violin[00:02:11]
He said you should give up your voice[00:02:18]
Before we both end up destroyed[00:02:21]
I quit alrighthe purred good boy[00:02:24]
You'll fall for anything when you're caught[00:02:29]
You'll believe anyone and[00:02:36]
I said that's not exactly true[00:02:38]
Only you you do what you do[00:02:41]
You awake in the hospital in a thrift store suit[00:03:45]
You hear your lover's voice from the waiting room[00:03:51]
You shut your eyes and pray for peace[00:03:57]
Think I'm not here this isn't me[00:04:00]
This isn't something I would do[00:04:03]
I know the complicated truth[00:04:06]
A big top tent a firey sword[00:04:08]
I make a mask of lions roar[00:04:09]
But they're not real and never were[00:04:14]
And soon she won't be real either[00:04:18]
This is the life you went and earned[00:04:21]
Because you never f**king learn[00:04:24]
You could use up all of your years[00:04:28]
Fixing the mess you make in here[00:04:30]
So as her nervous dress draws closer[00:04:33]
Dress heels click off their approach[00:04:36]
You clutch your chest and whisper[00:04:39]
Oh no what will I do what will I do[00:04:41]
My love my love what will I do[00:04:49]
