Pantomime - The Tiger & Me

I can’t believe, oh the ease with which you’re telling me to

Fall into line, it’s the line that you have crossed so many times

Can’t you see I can’t play the part you’ve cast me for

I’ve cut the strings, I have seen behind this charming pantomime

Don’t you know that the fire went out?

Don’t you know, don’t you know, don’t you know by now?

So hold your tongue

And bide your time

You could be

You could be losing your mind

Back to a time when a look was all it took to get you through

Before the chill stole the thrill and you were racing around with

Nothing to lose, you could prove beyond a doubt you had it

All at your feet, but you’ve lost it now, it’s slipped out of your reach

Don’t you know how the fire went out?

Don’t you know, don’t you know, don’t you know?

You should know by now

So hold your tongue

And bide your time

You could be

You could be losing your mind
