You asked me if I live without her
I choke on my reply
Let the blind man at the mirror spin his lie
And I'm damned if I don't try, damned if I don't try
But no matter what I say it doesn't go away at all and I am still unable to get free
And I've never been afraid of a consequence that I could have made
But having to admit this one has me...
And so the tiger's got his toe
And the only way to holler is by letting go
Still unable to get free
With cork and wax I try my best to spackle in the hole
The inevitable aging of my soul
And my heart it gets so tired
It's my heart and it gets so tired
It's just a trace to track the pain
The beat that I sustain for hoping
And I am still unable to get free
And I've never been afraid of a consequence that I could have made
But having to admit this one has me...
And so the tiger's got his toe
And the only way to holler is by letting go
Still unable to get free

I see connections in my contention that I could see redemption through the bars of this cage
And I don't know what to do
I said, "I don't know what to do"
For accepting sight unseen
So desperately I dream of some day when I won't be unable to get free
And I've never been afraid of a consequence that I could have made
But having to except this one has me...
And so the tiger's got his toe
And the only way to holler is by letting go
Still unable to get free
And I've never been afraid of a consequence that I could have made
But having to admit this one has me...
And so the tiger's got his toe
And the only way to holler is by letting go
Still unable to get free
