Tranquilize

I don’t want to know, I’ll just let it play out

See how this goes with time

We’d see who we become, we may not like it

But that’s just all we’d know

You say your time here’s short

And I can understand your hurry

You know I try hard, I really try hard

But still you’re letting go

So, I guess that’s all we know

Tranquilize my tiger eyes

Tranquilize until the day we die

The words fell slowly from their lips

But quickly melted me

Reluctance in my chest, my eyes refuse to rest

Through the door you fade from view

Bleak in the bone, grim at the gut

Still my blood flows

But your voice it follows me

A friendly haunt, you see

Show me all you know

Through the door I let you go

Tranquilize my tiger eyes

Tranquilize until the day we die

There’s something in the air, it’s undefined

A common killer’s stare we fall in line

Never thought you were the type, you let me down

Tranquilize my tiger eyes

Tranquilize until the day we die
