A part of me got stuck by trying not to think of what you caused
By hanging out in someone else’s arms
Even if I you do remember times in which you loved me tender
I can feel the bruise inside of me

Lion is awake now
I won't behave right
Lion is awake now
I won't get over it
Lion is awake now
I won't behave right
And you’d better get him to sleep

All I ever needed was a truthful and mysterious illusion
Of a life with no restraint
Oh, big cold cut go hide and shut down
Or let the rain be just a memory of a broken social scene

Lion is awake now
I won't behave right
Lion is awake now
I won't get over it
Lion is awake now
I won't behave right
And you’d better get him to sleep

You’d better get him to sleep
It would be better for me
You’d better get him to sleep
Paint that wall with a thick black mark
And set my body free

Lion is awake now
I won't behave right
Lion is awake now
I won't get over it
Lion is awake now
I won't behave right
Lion is awake now
Once you’re there you will see

I’ll need your hand (I’ll need your hand)
I’ll need your hand (I’ll need your hand)
I’ll need your hand (I’ll need your hand)

Lion is awake now (nah nah nah)
And you’d better get him to sleep
