[Hook] I'm a little lion man, with a head full of stars but a coward's heart I'm a little lion man, I'm a little lion man I'm a little lion man, with a head full of stars but a coward's heart I'm a little lion man, I'm a little lion man [Verse 1] I'm a little lion man, with a head full of stars but a coward's heart I'm sorry for the things I've done, but more sorry for the man I'm not She says "Now don't you worry," picks petals off a love me not I swear she could walk on water if she didn't have to hold me up My friends all look like strangers, my desk is crumpled papers I want to take this world and break it apart and rearrange it Yeah, I've got a lot of problems, but I guess I've got a lot more angels One thing I know for sure though, none of them have come from bravery It takes a lot less effort to learn to fear than love But if I just don't try then I will never have to give up She says that she knows my heart, that I've come so far, that I will not stop That I don't see me like they see me, well I think she's wrong, but I hope she's not [Hook] But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really f**ed it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear? I'm a little lion man, with a head full of stars but a coward's heart I'm a little lion man, I'm a little lion man I'm a little lion man, with a head full of stars but a coward's heart I'm a little lion man, I'm a little lion man [Verse 2] I'm a little lion man, with a body of tin but a heart of stone My friends all want to get high, well I just don't want to get low They're scared of things they know, me? I'm scared of things I don't I fear that the bump in the night could be myself if I lose hope I did not start the fire, son, but I sure as watched it burn I sat and warmed my hands at the ash of the gifts I've not earned I swear on the body in the box that I will be when it comes my turn You can tell the people I love that I may yet run but I will return [Hook] But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really f**ed it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear? But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really f**ed it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear? I'm a little lion man, with a head full of stars but a coward's heart I'm a little lion man, I'm a little lion man I'm a little lion man, with a body of tin but a heart of stone I'm a little lion man, I'm a little lion man [Bridge] Oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh oh oh [Hook] But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really f**ed it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear? But it was not your fault but mine And it was your heart on the line I really f**ed it up this time Didn't I, my dear? Didn't I, my dear?
