Animal

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I like it quiet in my soul So I can hear the earth turn below me I am an enigma to myself And simple to others I think too much and say too little I pour over and over words before they leave my head My shadow is the only one The only one that knows the things I've never said All the things I've never said [Pre-Chorus] I romanticize my past To make it easier to carry I'm charmed by every dream And I follow like a fiend The here and now is a place Is a place that I've rarely been [Chorus] The only time I believe in God is when you throw your hair back and tie it high The only time I believe in God is when you're, when you're driving me wild Like an animal Like an animal [Verse 2] I hang onto my hang-ups like cursed gold A stubborn gambler that never folds And in the avenues of my mind I lose the truth from time-to-time Running it down, running it down I get tired, I get tired I lean into things that aim to kill To catch a thrill, but still, the storms, they echo I've been a thousand men I've lived and died over and over Over and over, over and over Searching and searching for the best me [Chorus] The only time I love myself is when I'm in your stare stripped bare, yeah The only time that I love myself is when you're driving me wild Like an animal Like an animal Animal [Outro] The here and now is a place I've rarely been But you pull me in The here and now is a place I've rarely been But you pull me in The here and now is a place (I've rarely been) But you pull me in The here and now is a place (I've rarely been) But you pull me in
