Tiger Army

Under Saturn's shadow

Tiger Army


Here O sit and wait throughout my days 
Waiting for something, for my spirit to ascend 
It's not that I so badly want to die 
But at these times I struggle for desire to live 

Each day it grows worse than the last 
Function divorced from my body 
As Saturn's Shadow falls across my soul 
I'm powerless, until it's passed 

And I'm trying, I'm trying to find a way 
Out of the blackness of this tunnel at the end of the light 
And I'm dreaming forever of the day 
Dreaming of a time when life won't be this way 
(Under Saturn's Shadow I am falling, Under Saturn's Shadow) 

Webs invisible blind my spirit 
In bondage to a force unseen 
Like a candle, this gift my life 
It burns away, it burns away 

Until night's end sleep will not come to me 
Then come restless, fitful dreams 
Eternal slumber calls me to her arms 
After I'm dead, will I still dream? 

Sometimes I dream that I'm alive 
Under the stars, under the sky 
Then I awaken paralyzed to another day I cannot face 
And I'm trying, I'm trying to find a way 
Out of the blackness of this tunnel at the end of the light 
And I'm dreaming forever of the day 
Dreaming of a time when life won't be this way 
(Under Saturn's Shadow I am falling, Under Saturn's Shadow)
