Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  climbed a jacob's  ladder.
I  fell down holy  stairs.
I  found siddharta's  temple.
No  answer anywhere.
The  minute  you think  you know got it.
Is  the minute  you  know it's gone for a good.
The  second  you pause  his claws are on it.
The  tiger  inside  will eat the child.
Oh  oh oh
I  saw a hall of mirrors.
I  saw a burning wheel.
I  saw a rain of arrows.
I  lost the way to  feel.
I  saw a million faces.
Stare  at a falling  sky.
I  saw the last horizon.
The  end of time.
The  minute  you think  you know got it.
Is  the minute  you  know it's gone for a good.
The  second  you pause  his claws are on it.
The  tiger  inside  will eat the child.
Speaking  in quiet  whispers.
You  hear it everywhere.
It  leaves as you're  arriving.
Arrives  and you're  still there.
You  drink the cup  is empty.
You  pour the cup  is full.
You'll  never get  to hold it.
It's  always holding  you.
