Paper Tigers
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Heart pounds
To the sound
Comin' after me
Step back
What is that?
It's a mystery
Is it something?
Probably nothing
Still I find a way to scare myself
'Till I remember
This all feels familiar
And I know better
They are only paper tigers following me
In the wild imagination of the make believe
And there's a fighter, a survivor, arising in me
I'm not afraid of paper tigers
Night brings creepy things
And I hide away
False fears disappear
In the light of day
The sun is rising
I'm realizing
The only thing to fear is fear itself
Now I am certain
That my beast of burden
Isn't worth a worry
They are only paper tigers following me
In the wild imagination of the make believe
And there's a fighter, a survivor, arising in me
I'm not afraid
And I won't run away from paper tigers
