Pantomime Songtext
von The Tiger & Me

I can′t believe oh the ease with which you're telling me to
Fall into line, it′s the line that you have crossed so many times.
Don't you see I can't play the part you′ve cast me in for
I′ve cut the strings, I have seen behind this charming pantomime.

Don't you know that the fire went out?
Don′t you know, don't you know, don′t you know by now?

So hold your tongue,
and bide your time.
You could be,
You could be losing your mind.


Back to a time when a look was all it took to get you through,
Before the chill stole the thrill and you were racing around with
Nothing to lose, you could prove beyond a doubt you had it
All at your feet, but you've lost it now, it′s slipped out of your reach.

Don't you know how the fire went out?
Don't you know, don′t you know, don′t you know?
You should know by now.

So hold your tongue.
and bide your time.
You could be,
You could be losing your mind.
