Tame a Lion

[Verse 1]
I don't know why things are like they are
We've come so far, but we are back at the start
We are fighting wars no one can win
And looking for a different outcome in the end

[Pre-Chorus]
What's the point?
What's the point?

[Chorus]
You can't eat a ghost and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
There's nothing but rust here (Ah-ah)
There's nothing but dust here
You can't give back what you've been given

[Interlude]
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah

[Verse 2]
You can have a heart attack and keep on living
You can put your foot in your mouth and be forgiven
I think it's all connected, the need for love and acceptance
It's not my directive to explain it

[Pre-Chorus]
What's the point?
What's the point?

[Chorus]
You can't eat a ghost and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
There's nothing but rust here (Ah-ah)
There's nothing but dust here
You can't give back what you've been given

[Saxophone Solo]

[Chorus]
You can't eat a ghost and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
You can't eat a ghost and you can't tame a lion
You can't find gold, but you keep on trying
There's nothing but rust here (Ah-ah)
There's nothing but dust here
You can't give back what you've been given

[Outro]
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
Woah, woah, woah, woah
