You've seen this kid before;
He sits fists clenched.
When he looks up, (when he looks up)
He sees tigers.
When he looks inwards,
He sees disgust,
Disgust for a jungle that is alive.
A hand-me down false hope is hard to swallow.
When the truth has been realized, (the truth has been realized)
They'll destroy you. [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/g/gatsbys_american_dream/counterfeit_language.html ]
So what now?
Adapt and fit in to this system.
No, no!
Learn the language of this tribe;
Walk among them any time.
When he looks up, (when he looks up)
He sees tigers.
When he looks inward,
He sees disgust,
Disgust for a jungle that is alive.
A hand-me down false hope is hard to swallow.
When the truth has been realized, (the truth has been realized)
They'll destroy you.
