Thanks for trying

It's getting real; how does it feel
It's gotta stop whether you want it or not
You got far now I know who you are
Breaks my heart but right from the start
I should have seen, you're no good for me

Thought you'd slip through my radar but
I am smarter than most you've known
I can't be had and I've caught on
Scheming charms, underhanded plans
Just who do you think I am

Get off your knees
Save your appeal
Apologies won't work with me
There are no deals
To be made with lions
But thanks for trying

Oh, that sweet little lamb that I am
You saw a pretty face
You've made a grave mistake
Thought you could get away
I might be your saving grace

Had your chance but I don't want to play
Your empty hands always lose the game
Were you surprised I could walk away
The highest price you will ever pay
You see, there's only one of me

Get off your knees
Save your appeal
Apologies won't work with me
There are no deals
To be made with lions
But thanks for trying
