Animals

I was sure I was right

I was king for a day every night

I was wrong, I was wrong

And I knew where to go

Every step was a step up the road

I was on, I was on

As I reach for the sky

It was clear I couldn't fly

'Cause I'm not that animal

All the animals are running after me

It's all that I can do to stay on two feet

All the animals are running to the sea

And I give it away every night every day

Every word that I say I'm an animal

So I land on a stage

And I find that I'm slipping away

Let it roll, let it roll

And the heart plays a game

Trying to fool the reptilian brain

In control, in control

Where I fly or I fight

Wanna look into your eyes

There's nothing but animal there

All the animals are running after me

It's all that I can do to stay on two feet

All the animals are running to the sea

And I give it away every night every day

Every word that I say I'm an animal

So let your walls come crashing down

Let your dress fall to the ground

Let me see your smile

Let the call of the wild

Be your words for awhile

Be a song for awhile

All the animals are running after me

It's all that I can do to stay on two feet

All the animals are running to the sea

And I give it away every night every day

Every word that I say I'm an animal

I'm an animal
