Lion's Den

(album: The Cure III - 2022)

I've been amongst the shadows
Seeing familiar faces
But I don't see myself at all
Yeah
Searching for stones like Thanos
I made myself a promise
I would get back up if I fall

But it's hard
Tryna sort through these pieces of my soul
It's hard
Setting fire to my sense of self control
It's hard
Why ain't nobody tell me that this shit's so hard
Why is it so hard?

Now I'm scared of the light like the darkness
It's been moving all through me so fast
Every time I think I'm in the garden
You know that shit it don't ever last

I'm in the lion's den
And I don't like to go in there
Scared of the lion's den
I don't wanna go in there

She said stop your crying
To yourself you're lying
Everything in life is fair
Yeah
Tell me what's it gonna take
To get out of your own way
Baby what you scared to be?

I'm afraid of the light like the darkness
Cuz it's moving right through me so fast
Every time I think I'm in the garden
You know that shit it don't ever last

I'm in the lion's den
And I don't like to go in there
Scared of the lion's den
I don't wanna go in there

Lion's den
Go in there
Lion's den
Go in there
