lyrics

SAVAGERY & INNOCENCE

Tiger, Tiger, burning bright ~ in the forests of the night.
What immortal hand or eye, could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies ~ Burnt the fire in thine eyes?
On what wings did he aspire?What the hand dare sieze the fire?
And what shoulder and what art, could twist the sinews
of thy heart?
And when thy heart begins to beat.
What dreaded hand, and dreaded feet?
What the hammer, what the chain? In what furnace
was thy brain? What the anvil? What dread grasp?
Dare it’s deadly terrors clasp?
When the stars threw down their spears, and watered
heaven with their tears.
Did he smile his work to see?
Did he who made the lamb make thee?
Tiger, Tiger, burning bright ~ in the forests of the night.
What immortal hand or eye, dare frame thy fearful...
symmetry? ...symmetry ...savagery!
Seize the fire.

Savagery and Innocence (X4)
Savagery and Innocence (X4)
Savagery and Innocence (X4)

Tiger, Tiger, burning bright ~ in the forests of the night.
What immortal hand or eye, could frame thy fearful symmetry?
In what distant deeps or skies ~ Burnt the fire in thine eyes?
On what wings did he aspire?What the hand dare seize the fire?
And what shoulder and what art, could twist the sinews
of thy heart?
