There's a lion above your bed
And he's eating at your soul now
I'm a jewel in a paper bag and it keeps you down

Consolation for what you've lost
A constellation that can't be crossed
There's a shadow on your back
And it's eating out your heart now

Get out of my head
Leave me alone
I heard what you said
You just don't know
Get out of my head
Leave me alone

Oh just take me
Take me
(I've already had it to here)
Wake me
Wake me
(I've already had it to here)
Break me
Break me
(I've already had it to here)

There's a lion above your head
And he's eating at your soul now
I'm a fool and a silly nag
And it makes you cry

An enigma that's haunting you
Astigmatism you can't see through
There's a shadow on your back
And it's eating out your heart now

Get out of my head
Leave me alone
I heard what you said
You just don't know
Get out of my head
Leave me alone

Oh just take me
Take me
(I've already had it to here)
Wake me
Wake me
(I've already had it to here)
Break me
Break me
(I've already had it to here)

I am not what you wanted
I am now what you fear
You've taken it for granted
You twist the atmosphere

I am not what you wanted
I am not what you fear
You've taken it for granted
You twist the atmosphere

Oh just take me
Take me
(I've already had it to here)
Wake me
Wake me
(I've already had it to here)
Break me
Break me
(I've already had it to here)

Oh just take me
Take me
Wake me
Wake me
Break me
Break me
Take me
Take me

I've already had it to here
