Island in the city, music in the air
Waiting for the feeling, and
surprise: it's right there!
I dressed up in a cloth of lion
I wanted to avoid growing thin, so
That I couldn't blame myself not
running faster
I took my courage, I felt so hungry
And hunger is a greed that makes
you achieve
Something more than you are in
CHORUS I:
I want my life, you'd better beware
of my mind
But you are here and this is a
hungry lion dance
I wanna hit and run and you'd

I saw a big field

I saw the black figures in horizon
Don't you be afraid of me babe
I'm faster than your fright
You shiny angel, wearing crystals
You will recognize the rebel
without a pause
Still I'll wait, on the final scene
before the edge
CHORUS 2:
I want your love, you'd better
beware of my life
'coz you are near and this is a
hungry lion dance
I wanna hit and run without an
easy way
I'm hungry for you love and I
really don't like to pass you
Island in the city, music in the air
Waiting for the feeling, and
surprise: it's right there!
CHORUS 3:
I want your love you'd better
beware of my mind
'coz you're so green and I know
well where I'm aiming to
I wanna split and run without an
easy way
But still you are here and I really
