The Backyard Of My Life

Life With The Lions



They can cut you with their words
If looks could kill you would of been dead
They feed of your pain and misery
Sink there teeth into your suffering
Waiting in the shadows to watch you fall

They will kick you when your down
Destroy whatever dreams you have got
Like a hangman hanging your hopes out to dry
Setting fire to any little faith you have left
Rubbing there hands together when you cry

Tell a policeman on the street
About corruption lies and deceit
Maybe they will arrest everyone at the house of lords

They will drink your blood feast on your failures
Laugh when your whole world comes crashing down
They take great delight in your misfortunes
Thirsty for the taste of your teardrops
Grinning from ear to ear when things don't go your way

They will sabotage all of your self respect
Take all of your money and pawn all of your possessions
They will break and burn your heart and soul
While they eat your children for breakfast
Proud as punch there at the top of the food chain
