Tiger! Tiger!

Tiger! Tiger! - Slough Feg

The spheres in motion wrapped around collapsing stars

Immortal hands and eyes are framed in fearful scars

The mystery of living breathing dying hard

My name and occupation tattooed on my face

The stars my destiny deep se my dwelling place

Delirious and rotting where's my saving grace

The stars burn bright

In the forest of night

But what mortal hands and eyes will I see there

I'm trapped behind bars

On the gateway to mars

But when all the stars expire will I still be

Here

I'll set the villages and colonies aflame

The bards of history had best forget my name

Deliriously plotting nomad is my fame

The stars burn bright

In the forest of night

But what mortal hands and eyes will I see there

I'm trapped behind bars

On the gateway to mars

But when all the stars expire will I still be

Here
