Tame The Lion Lyrics

Beneath the faded circus sky, where shadows crawl,

I walk alone into the ring, to face it all.

The crowd is nothing but a distant hum,

But I hear the growl, feel the beast become.

His eyes are hungry, burning cold,

A silent pact we made, but never told.

The whip's a lie, the cage is thin,

It's not the lion trapped, it's me within.

I am the lion tamer, cursed by the fight,

Chasing shadows in the dead of night.

We're bound by fear, by blood and flame,

Dancing in circles, lost in the game.

Oh, the lion tamer, haunted by the wild,

Taming the beast with a twisted smile.

Each night, his breath upon my skin,

I feel the darkness rise again.

The crowd cheers loud, but they don't see,

The lion's not the monster, it's me.

The whip cracks sharp, but the fear won't fade,

A devil's deal that I have made.

He stalks me close, I hear his call,

In this ring of fire, I could lose it all.

I am the lion tamer, cursed by the fight,

Chasing shadows in the dead of night.

We're bound by fear, by blood and flame,

Dancing in circles, lost in the game.

Oh, the lion tamer, haunted by the wild,

Taming the beast with a twisted smile.

His eyes, they mirror what's inside,

A rage, a hunger I can't hide.

The chain's too tight, the mask I wear,

Is cracking now, beyond repair.

The ring is silent, the lights are dim,

I face the lion and he faces him.

Two beasts locked in this endless race,

Each one wearing the other's face.

I am the lion tamer, cursed by the fight,

Chasing shadows in the dead of night.

We're bound by fear, by blood and flame,

Dancing in circles, lost in the game.

Oh, the lion tamer ,haunted by the wild,

Taming the beast with a twisted smile.

The ring is broken, but the curse remains,

A prisoner bound by invisible chains.

The lion waits, in his eyes I see

The beast I've tamed was always me.
