Unable
Blues Traveler

You asked me, if I live without her

I choke on my reply

Let the blind man at the mirror spin his lie


And I'm damned if I don't try

Damned if I don't try

But no matter what I say

It doesn't go away at all

And I'm still unable to get free


And I've never been afraid

Of a consequence that I could have made

But having to admit this one has me


And so the tiger's got his toe

But the only way to holler is by letting go

Still unable to get free


With cork and wax I try my best

To spackle in the hole

The inevitable aging of my soul


And my heart it gets so tired

It's my heart and it gets so tired

It's just a trace to track my pain

The beat that I sustain for hoping

And I am still unable to get free


And I've never been afraid

Of a consequence that I could have made

But having to admit this one has me


And so the tiger's got his toe


And the only way to holler is by letting go

Still unable to get free


Ooh, I see connections

Ooh, in my contention

That I could see redemption

Through the bars of this cage


And I don't know what to do

Said, I don't know what to do

For accepting sight unseen

So basically I dream of some day

When I won't still unable to get free


And I've never been afraid

Of a consequence that I could have made

But having to accept this one has me


And so the tiger's got his toe

And the only way to holler is by letting go

Still unable to get free


And I've never been afraid

Of a consequence that I could have made

But having to admit this one has me


And so the tiger's got his toe

And the only way to holler is by letting go

Still unable to get free
