The Lion
Stuck in the invisible mud
If I fall it’ll leave a thud
Incapable to try to move
The grip’s starting to create a groove
I had my dreams go up in smoke
Better stay low in case I choke
Inside my chest there raged a fire
It burnt everything I had to desire
The only point I’m at is Patiti
I know the waves won’t catch me
Smoking a joint so my blood gets thicker
Maybe it’ll dry my eyelids quicker
I’m a man of little emotion
While looking over the Pacific Ocean
But I’ve got no fears
So I promise you no tears
They don’t shed from my eyes
They’re just hidden in disguise
They don’t run over my skin
They’re just buried deep within
Sweet dreams with a touch of hell
Should I hide it or should I tell?
I’ll just smile and say “I’m okay”
If only I said what I wanted to say
