Songtext Throw me to the lions Alkaline Trio

Throw me to the lions

I’m having trouble keeping focused, craving nothing too low
From the god of hocus pocus to the goddesses of fun
I’m gonna have you sign that fever dream I’m just through walking from
Like my knees aren’t easy feelings of the nightmare you’ve become

So go, throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of me thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultraviolence and I’m eaten to bleed

You’re having trouble keeping focus, craving me and all my blood
Straining cats and dogs of love gets from that sicko off above
Woman I just saw that fever dream, you don’t know heck I’m from
The devil’s in the doorway, and I know it goes to fuck

So go, throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of me thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultraviolence and I’m eaten to bleed

Inhale, I’m not eaten to bleed
Inhale
Inhale, I’m not eaten to bleed
Inhale, I’m not eaten to bleed

Throw me to the lions
Listen for my screams
Show me how the scientist inside of me thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultraviolence and I’m eaten to bleed

Inhale, I’m not eaten to bleed
Inhale
Inhale, I’m not eaten to bleed
Inhale, I’m not eaten to bleed
