Tiger's Heart

I know I'm lucky
I know I'm lucky
Yes, I'm so lucky
But I will never get out
I know I'm lucky
So very lucky
Yes, I'm so lucky
But I will never get out of here
Not this time, no
Little girls lighting candlesticks
On tabletops, a burning tip
Oh, don't reject my request
To resign, oh, not this time, no
I've gone as far as I can go
Look to the sky and I spy
With my little eye a reason to fly
Oh, supernova's coming fast
How will I react if my words are trash?
Spend my life constructing paper wings
Unlike wax I'm sure these will last
But this tiger's heart is always wrong
I'm the climax in the very best song
A song you always sing
The current of air beneath my wings
I've gone as far as I can go
And I will never get out
You'll never let me go
Swallow it down like a little pill
The ones you take to keep you still
So you won't spill out your thoughts
Be brave enough to not get caught
Strong enough to break your own heart
Rip it apart until you're back at the start
Life is on repeat...repeat...repeat...
I've gone as far as I can go
But I will never get out
I've gone as far as I can go
You'll never let me go

Ok so I wrote this several years ago and I've only just begun to put music to it. The words will get some adjustments most likely, which is the most I can really say about them. It's actually one of those peppy songs that will utilize a lot of the B and high E strings. I guess we'll just see what happens and if the music ever actually does get written. It is rather different from the other things I've written, and you might find it a bit underdeveloped, but you haven't heard it. Trust me.
