lyrics

you were hidden in the scheme
telling me my sprouting dreams
were wearing thin

i was standing on your door
& knocking on your floor
to be let in

& then you got lost
just to be found
& you found yourself
in a lion’s mouth

you say the word is now
but your laughing off your vows
like a child’s bet

& you say it’s time to quit
cause the slipper didn’t fit
like you expected

& you tell me nothing
is what it seems
as though that
means anything

your bending all your bones
to tell me your alone
i don’t buy it

cause i hunted all your smoke
till every mirror broke
but you’re still hiding

& you fell asleep
in your house of cards
while the lions teeth
tore it apart
