Lion's Den

Don't ask me to imagine
A life where we almost never happened
Where you and I had our purpose
Where our fingertips never scratched the surface
Yeah
I don't wanna wake up
If you're not gonna be right there when I look across
I don't want you to run out on us

So if you're gonna leave, leave slowly
'Cause you're the only one who holds me like
A piece of me just might be holy
Come carry me through all my sleepless nights

I tried not to love you
Baby, I just can't
I would rather fall into a lion's den
And someone else's arms my darling
Baby, I just can't
I would rather fall into a lion's den

Don't ask me to remember
A time where you and I were not together
Yeah
'Cause I would rather sever
My arteries and use them as our tether

So if you're gonna leave, leave slowly
'Cause you're the only one who holds me like
A piece of me just might be holy
Come carry me through all my sleepless nights

I tried not to love you
Baby I just can't
I would rather fall into a lion's den
And someone else's arms my darling
Baby I just can't
I would rather fall into a lion's den

And someone else's arms
And someone else's heart
'Cause someone else ain't you
And baby that's the hardest part
You're all I've ever known
Don't wanna let you go
Oh-whoa

So if you're gonna leave, leave slowly
'Cause you're the only one who holds me like
A piece of me just might be holy
Come carry me through all my sleepless nights

I tried not to love you
Baby, I just can't
I would rather fall into a lion's den
And someone else's arms my darling
Baby, I just can't
I would rather fall into a lion's den
