The Tiger Inside Will Eat The Child Songtext
wade in the rising water
walk in the sinking sand
crawl through the shadow valley
to try to understand

i climbed a jacob's ladder
i fell down holy stairs
i found siddharta's temple
no answer anywhere
the minute you think you know got it
is the minute you know it's gone for a good
the second you pause his claws are on it
the tiger inside will eat the child

oh oh oh

i saw a hall of mirrors
i saw a burning wheel
i saw a rain of arrows
i lost the way to feel

i saw a million faces
stare at a falling sky
i saw the last horizon
the end of time

the minute you think you know got it
is the minute you know it's gone for a good
the second you pause his claws are on it
the tiger inside will eat the child

speaking in quiet whispers
you hear it everywhere
it leaves as you're arriving
arrives and you're still there

you drink the cup is empty
you pour the cup is full
you'll never get to hold it
it's always holding you
