The Lion's Den
Everglow Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When I fell,
From the mountains
I woke up in a lions den
I fell asleep
Nearly drowning
Never opened up my eyes again
I remember was the sweetest sound
The whisper of a friend
Holding on to find a higher ground
Beginning of the end
But here
In the silence
I have found my voice
Here with the beating drum
I have found my voice
(Musical Interlude)
Listen close can you hear it?
It's echoing through these walls
Stumbling
Praying dearly
In the creverts and tavern halls
I remember was the sweetest sound
The whisper of a friend
Holding on to find a higher ground
Beginning of the end
But here
In the silence
I have found my voice
Here with the beating drum
I have found my voice
(Musical Interlude)
I remember was the sweetest sound
The whisper of a friend
Holding on to find a higher ground
Beginning of the end
But here
In the silence
I have found my voice
Here with the beating drum




I have found my voice
(Musical Interlude)

Overall Meaning

The Lion’s Den by Everglow is a song full of symbolism and hidden meanings. The lyrics describe someone who falls from the mountains and wakes up in a lion's den. The lion's den represents a dangerous and unpredictable situation, but the singer manages to find a way out. The line "nearly drowning, never opened up my eyes again" implies an almost-death experience that has changed the singer's perspective on life. The mention of a whisper of a friend implies that someone helped the singer to overcome the obstacles and find a higher ground, even during the darkest times.


The song then moves on to describe how the singer found their voice in the silence. This could mean that the singer has finally found the inner strength to speak up for themselves and fight for what they believe in. The beating drum could symbolize the rhythm of life, which doesn't always follow a predictable pattern, but the singer has found their own rhythm that resonates with them.


Overall, The Lion's Den is a song of hope and perseverance. Even when things seem impossible, there is always a way out. With the help of friends and the determination to find one's voice, anyone can overcome the obstacles in their path.

The moment when you randomly find a video on youtube, think 'hey this is pretty good', then recognize the lead singer and realize you knew him during the Belf4 years.  Pretty sweet.  Well done guys - this should be spinning on Radio 2
