My Animal

(álbum: My Animal - 1998)

Every time I wake up I think, oh, life
I'm in love with you, then I breathe it in
Never one to say that I am just a little boy
Rubbing to find a way in

And today I feel just like an animal
That's trying to hide from all of you
I'll find the will to live in the simple fact of life
In which each day brings something new

I can be so naive to the ways of this world
So I try to spin myself into a ball of love
If I look into your eyes, will I feel the harmony
Rising converge above?

Something in the smell I long to feel
My animal trying to find a way out
Beneath the surface, do you feel the will to kill?
To kill without any doubt, alright

I can feel my animal
I can feel my animal

I wanna kill him and then I'll know I'm alive
And get to watch his breath leave
I watch some birds up in the trees
Will I feel guilt as he dies? Yeah

All he does is hiss a word
So I won't cry, no, I won't cry
No, I won't cry, I will never cover him

I can feel my animal, I wanna take his life
His eyes are stoned, as cold as ice, yeah
No body animal, you know it seems to kill him
And as he does this he thinks to them
He thinks that this is your will

I wanna lock the fucker in a cage
'Cause when I looked into his eyes
It's like you're looking into a mirror
Know that it's so good to be alive

It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive
It's good to be alive

I can feel my animal, I wanna take his life
His eyes are stoned, as cold as ice, yeah
I wanna kill him, I wanna take his life
His eyes are stoned as cold as ice
