Tiger In A Burning Tree Lyrics

A friend of mine woke me up to tell me about his dream
All the lights in the world went black
He felt like a tiger in a burning tree
He was like he was led for something
that he did not wanna see
His life looks better...
He lives like a tiger in a burning tree

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e94932-everclear~tiger_in_a_burning_tree_lyrics.html ]
...a woman from the city in the South
She lost her cow when the bottle fell out
She sold her life to the deep blue sea
She left a message for the world to see.
She knows better what it's like to be
A tiger in a burning tree!

Close your eyes and take a deep deep breath
Blow out the candles in that..

I was a child that...
I broke him into pieces, set him on fire
Swept him under my bed.
I never learned how to play nice with all the other kids
I never learned how to draw ...line, the devil will

Close your eyes and take a deep breath
You're making the world so much better than this
Now close your eyes...
And you can tell me what it feels like
To be a tiger in a burning tree
