Cody Thoreson - Androcles and the Lion Lyrics

I've already looked deep into that hole
And I know what kind of damage it could do to my soul
To entertain those thoughts even just for a second
I'll be present in this life until eternity beckons

And every single day like the old ash tree
That sat outside the window singing siren songs to me
Lying dormant in the winter and awaiting warmth and light
I know I'm feeling lost, but I will not die

I know I'm feeling lost, but I will not die

I think I'm f*cking drowning, Yeah I'm lost out at sea
I see the path to salvation out of my periphery
The strength to overcome was never guaranteed
But you won't find peace for free and on that we can agree
So I will swim through the debris just to get you close to me

I never will let myself spiral down that path
And disappear so I don't have to see the aftermath
And I can run real far but I can't outrun my flaws
No matter how many times I drive through f*cking Omaha

And every single day like every stage of me
Looking at the binding coils and yearning to be free
I'll make peace with the things that I can't rectify
Cause I know I'm feeling lost, but I will not die

I'm feeling lost
But I will not die
