1
(One, two, three...)
2
There are those among us willing
3
To get by on anything
4
Hollow hope of what is coming
5
A lifetime dangled by a string
6
But this ocean dives so deeply
7
And this river runs so wide
8
I won't be counted one among them
9
Until my soul is satisfied
10
Brick and brick of buried hunger
11
Keeping all desire dark
12
And then we are like lions
13
We are tearing it apart
14
There are those among us lying
15
Saying nothing is for free
16
And then we are like lions
17
And we will not leave until we eat
18
Playing kings and playing peasants
19
Do we get what we are owed
20
An eagle comes and talks of failure
21
A rabbit offers up its throat
22
Will they buy even our breathing
23
A river strangled by a dam
24
Less than one percent are taking
25
So tell me who dries up this land
26
Is it worse to see no future
27
Is it worse to be afraid
28
And then we are like lions
29
Pumping fire in our veins
30
We are born with a perfect hunger
31
We are born with a perfect need
32
And then we are like lions
33
And we are baring all our teeth
34
It is coming down the mountain
35
Fear that holds you like a cold
36
It wants to settle in your footprints
37
Keep you still from where you're going
38
All you think you know of losing
39
All you doubt of innocence
40
That big sky still hangs above you
41
Every day just wants to quit
42
There's no light you see to guide you
43
And it scares you just the same
44
And then we are like lions
45
Nothing dares get in our way
46
See your faithless sails drifting
47
And your truth just cut apart
48
And then we are like lions
49
We are golden in our hearts
50
And then we are like lions
51
We are standing on two feet
52
Hanging on the kitchen wall
53
For everyone to see
54
Get out your banjo
55
So we can sing
56
There are winds that wrap and hold me
57
There are whispers in the trees
58
I cannot hold all that is sacred
59
They are holding onto me
60
Kiss the years that all are dying
61
Kiss the face that makes you stay
62
They are in your rhythms walking
63
They are showing you the way
64
Breath and breath above a sickness
65
Shouting threats upon your life
66
And then we are like lions
67
We are fool enough to fight
68
It will cheat you in the balance
69
Taking more than left to live
70
And then we are like lions
71
We are strong enough to give
72
And then we are like lions
73
We are strong enough to give
