Wild Tigers I Have Known - Emily Jane White

Silence is a power and a tool for you, for you

Wild tigers I have known

They see me down, messin' around

You keep your heart from your chest

It’ll be gone just like the rest

'Cause it’s a man’s world

Say all the right words

And hold your heart from your chest

The silence and the call

And their beauty stands right and still for you

Holding flames, holding hands and hearts

And their bindings held tightly

Lyin' in the shady grass, their teeth grinding

Insight is foreign

'Cause it’s the magic hand that holds you gently

And turns one into man

And their insight is bloody

To reach boldly for truth spoken from mouth in his name

There will be wise men singin', bringing you luck now

There will be wise men singin', bringing you luck now

There will be wise men singin', bringing you luck, bringing you luck

Now it’s the precious end of time

Hand in pocket, bright light

Wild tigers I have known

They see me down messin' around
