RIDE THE TIGER
Another grey-lit morning, head in a haze
I should get up, but I'm locked in place
It's half-past 8, I stare at the ceiling
Alarm goes off, but I'm barely breathing
​
Make my way to work, just another day
Podcast on repeat, it's the same old pain
I should be fine, I should be glad
Grabbed Greggs for breakfast
But I'm still rather sad
​
It breaks my heart to hear it again
It's my point of view but you're not listening
Others light the way like it's a walk in the park
But without a flame I can't see in the dark
​
I don't know what it's all about
These sober eyes; still lost in doubt
If we can't untangle this mystery
I'll ride the tiger, let it carry me
​
I don't know what it's all about
Modern life; it wears me down
If we can't escape from this misery
I'll ride the tiger let it carry me
​
Living life in boxes, all staked up high
Burning through out stash, while the days drift on by
Or crammed in a carriage, no hope in sight
Got that sinking feeling, but I'm holding on tight
​
It breaks my heart to hear it again
It's my point of view but you're not listening
Others light the way like it's a walk in the park
But without a flame I can't see in the dark
​
I don't know what it's all about
These sober eyes; still lost in doubt
If we can't untangle this mystery
I'll ride the tiger let it carry me
I don't know what it's all about
Modern life; it wears me down
If we can't escape from this misery
I'll ride the tiger let it carry me
​
Oh oh oh
Let it carry me
Oh oh oh
Let it carry me
Oh oh oh
​
I don't know what it's all about
These sober eyes; still lost in doubt
If we can't untangle this mystery
I'll ride the tiger let it carry me
​
I don't know what it's all about
Modern life; it wears me down
If we can't escape from this misery
I'll ride the tiger let it carry me
