Lyrics
Tame a Lion
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.
I don't know why things are like they are
We've come so far, but we are back at the start
We are fighting wars no one can win
And looking for a different outcome in the end
What's the point?
What's the point?
You can't eat a ghost, and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
There's nothing but rust here (ah-ah)
There's nothing but dust here
You can't give back what you've been given
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
You can have a heart attack and keep on living
You can put your foot in your mouth and be forgiven
I think it's all connected, the need for love and acceptance
Its not my directive to explain it
What's the point?
What's the point?
You can't eat a ghost, and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
There's nothing but rust here (ah-ah)
There's nothing but dust here
You can't give back what you've been given
You can't eat a ghost, and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
You can't eat a ghost, and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
There's nothing but rust here (ah-ah)
There's nothing but dust here
You can't give back what you've been given
