《Tiger in a Burning Tree》歌词

[00:00:00] Tiger in a Burning Tree - Everclear

[00:00:01] A friend of mine woke me up

[00:00:04] To tell me about his dream

[00:00:07] All the lights in the world went black

[00:00:09] He felt like a tiger in a burning tree

[00:00:12] It was like he was late for something that he did not want to see

[00:00:17] His life looked better on paper he lives like a tiger in a burning tree

[00:00:23] Blow out the candles and make a wish

[00:00:27] I thought about a woman from a city in the South

[00:00:30] She lost her car when the bottom fell out

[00:00:33] She sold her life to the deep blue sea

[00:00:35] She left a message for the world to see

[00:00:39] She knows better what it's like to be a tiger in a burning tree

[00:00:44] Close your eyes and take a big deep breath

[00:00:49] Blow out the candles and make a wish

[00:00:55] When I was a child I painted my toys

[00:00:57] Angel blue and devil red

[00:00:59] I broke them into pieces set them on fire and shoved them under my bed

[00:01:05] I never learned how to play nice with all the other kids

[00:01:10] I never learned how to draw inside the line and probably never will

[00:01:16] Close your eyes and take a big deep breath

[00:01:22] Imagine a world so much better than this

[00:01:27] Now close your eyes and jump to a place you would think to be

[00:01:32] Then you could tell me what it feels like to be

[00:01:38] A tiger in a burning tree
