Aspirations
Good Tiger Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take a look into these eyes and tell me what you see.
I built your trust just like this world hopefully it wont end badly.
Take these whispers in your ear and tell me what you hear.
Crashing the world brick by brick told you all it would end badly.
I would like to build this world around you.
And I would like to crash this world around you.
Don't you forget that there were ways around the mess that I had made.
Take it in stride cause you are all I need.
I would like to build this world around you.
And I would like to crash this world around you.
Let me in. Let me in. Let me in Baby.
Let me in. Let me in. Let me in oh.
Let me in. Let me in. Let me in Baby.
Let me in. Let me in oh honey.
Let me in. Let me in. Let me in love.
Let me in. Let me in oh honey.
Let me in. Let me in. Let me in baby.
Honey I built all these thing for you.
Honey what do I have left to prove?
Beyond the moon, beyond the stars is a place inside my heart.
I built all these things for you.
Something no mortal would ever do.
Take what I've given and try to leave.
Take what I've given and try to leave.
I would like to build this world around you.




And I would like to crash this world around you.
Around you.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Good Tiger's song Aspirations tells a story of a protagonist who has built trust with someone, and wishes to build a world around them. The singer also admits to being responsible for causing chaos and destruction in the world, but hopes that it won't end badly for them. The lyrics also suggest that there were alternative ways to avoid the mess the singer has caused. The singer expresses their desire to be let in and to build a world around their loved one, but also acknowledges that they have nothing left to prove.


The line "I would like to build this world around you, and I would like to crash this world around you," implies that the singer's feelings towards their loved one are extreme, to the point where they would be willing to both create and destroy everything around them just to be close to their loved one. The line "Beyond the moon, beyond the stars is a place inside my heart," suggests that their love for the person transcends the physical world and can't be contained by anything in this world.


The song speaks to themes of desire and obsession, the destructive nature of love and the consequences of actions. It could be interpreted as a cautionary tale about the dangers of allowing our emotions to control us and the importance of considering alternative paths.

Why does nobody talk about this band anymore? Incredible musicianship, wonderful melodies, inspiring lyrical stories, copious amounts of harmonic resonance and energy.

Their last album wasn't that great I guess. Also his voice is an acquired taste.

STEVE THE DESTROYER

New album!!! Also the drummer left.. COVID.. 3/4 of the band is British locked down toight and most would agree it never really fully lifted. But new album!!! Maybe they’ll find the right drummer and tour again 💪 I would watch them with ggd backing tracks.

This is sick. Thanks, Misha Mansoor for always wearing GoodTiger shirts. I finally checked them out and they kick ass. Just bought this record, and pre-ordered the new record on bandcamp.

Fatsuperfly

These guys need more promo!! I mean outside of metal. They are soooo good. They can break that bridge between metal and hard rock n indie music. I want this band to stick around for years to come.

Rui Carneiro

I aspire to be as good as these tigers one day.
