To the Lions Lyrics

Sympathy's in short supply
There's simply not enough

Lord, God above
Scratching at the bones
To find my diamond in the rough

Girl, I want you to care
But you fed me to the lions
You fed me to the lions

Oh, I'm black and blue
You've abandoned me
To the lions

Oh, my love
So short the claws that scratched
At our disintegrating trust

Lord God above
With heavy head between my hands
Our diamonds turn to dust

Girl, I want you to care
But you fed me to the lions
You fed me to the lions

Oh, what can I do?
You've abandoned me
To the lions

Oh-oh, to the lions
Oh-oh, to the lions
Oh-oh, to the lions

[Bridge: I'm calling a ceasefire]
I'm begging you please sign
My petition for release

Girl, I want you to care
But you fed me to the lions
You fed me to the lions

Oh, what can I do?
You've abandoned me to…

Girl, I'd go anywhere
But you're casting me in irons
You're casting me in irons

Oh, I'm black and blue
You've abandoned me
To the lions

Oh-oh, to the lions
Oh-oh, to the lions
Oh-oh, to the lions
Oh-oh, to the lions
Oh-oh, to the lions
