Time Is the Tiger

You're tired and you're quiet

Still I know there's a riot

In your head

The lie that you married

Oh, the lie never married

You back

You're scared and your frightened

But the lights are so bright and

So are you

You live through the music

I can tell 'cause I used it

The same way you steal permission

To stand by your decision

And you almost feel religious

As you're burning all the bridges

All the speed, all the racing

All the years that you waste

On them

They say that they own you

But the chains they put on you

Won't hold

So tonight you'll go dancing

You'll take one of the chances

You have left

And you live through the music

I can tell 'cause I used it

The same way you steal permission

To stand by your decision

And you almost feel religious

As you're burning all the bridges

And it feels right

So you choose it

Oh, you close your eyes

And you lose it

It's a sermon

And a solace

Oh, it almost feels

Like a promise

The same way you steal permission

To stand by your decision

And you almost feel religious

As you're burning all the bridges

The same way you steal permission

To stand by your decision

And you almost feel religious

As you're burning all the bridges
