There's a tiger in that house
don't tell me you didn't see the light go off
keep screaming in my ear
even if you told me there's blood all over
I won't believe you
'cause there's no healing process running through these vains
and I am telling you
there's a tiger in that house
so don't enter the room

I knit a sweater for winter
but the yarn wont ever do what I say
knots that doesn't feel like breaking open
and I can't let you break with every knot
the layer thickens
wherever did you go?
puttin a restraining jacket on
I'm telling you
There's a tiger in that house
and he won't be trapped for long

Oh girl, you'd better be careful
'cause I won't be trapped for long
and when I break, I break thoroughly,
don't let down your guard
'cause your needles can't sow it back on
and you would never be whole again
