Throw Me To The Lions by Alkaline Trio Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I’m having trouble keeping focus
Craving double-feature love
From the gods of hocus-pocus
To the goddesses above
I’m burning up just like that fever dream
I’ve just awoken from
Live with these uneasy feelings
Of the nightmare you’ve become
[Chorus]
So go throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of you thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultra violence and a reason to bleed
[Verse 2]
You’re having trouble keeping focus
Craving me and all my blood
It’s raining cats and dogs of locusts
From that sicko up above
Burning up just like that fever dream
You’ll never wake up from
The devil’s in the doorway
And unholy ghost above
[Chorus]
So go throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of you thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultra violence and a reason to bleed
[Bridge]
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me violence
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me one good reason to bleed
[Chorus]
So go throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of you thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultra violence and a reason to bleed
[Bridge]
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me violence
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me one good reason to bleed
Violence
I’m having trouble keeping focus
Craving double-feature love
From the gods of hocus-pocus
To the goddesses above
I’m burning up just like that fever dream
I’ve just awoken from
Live with these uneasy feelings
Of the nightmare you’ve become
[Chorus]
So go throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of you thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultra violence and a reason to bleed
[Verse 2]
You’re having trouble keeping focus
Craving me and all my blood
It’s raining cats and dogs of locusts
From that sicko up above
Burning up just like that fever dream
You’ll never wake up from
The devil’s in the doorway
And unholy ghost above
[Chorus]
So go throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of you thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultra violence and a reason to bleed
[Bridge]
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me violence
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me one good reason to bleed
[Chorus]
So go throw me to the lions
Listen for the screams
Show me how the scientist inside of you thinks
Anything but silence
Feel like I can’t breathe
Bring me ultra violence and a reason to bleed
[Bridge]
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me violence
Give me one good reason to bleed
Give me one good reason to bleed
Violence
