Animal Boy

lyrics

Hey there animal boy
walking through the streets like an accident
You've got your headphones on
And the world's got a crush on you.
And you go out late to the bar,
but none of these people even know who you are
but if they did, they'd all be going home with you.

But like you came, you're leaving alone
down the blurry street that takes you back to your home
there's a voice in your head saying
"Something must be wrong with you."

You get home, lay alone on your bed
With criminal thoughts all swimming in your head
You sit up.... then decide to go to sleep instead.

And you're alone down here,
you might as well swallow the fear
It's an ugly little world
You're alone, it's real,
no matter how bad it feels
It's the only thing we know.

Hey there animal boy
you've got a friend in Jesus but he only annoys,
what some call love still sounds like a threat to me.
Still you tell me all your sweet little lies
that bring you comfort when you're drifting off to sleep at night
And I wonder, if I should kick the crutch from you.

And you're alone down here,
you might as well swallow the fear
It's an ugly little world.
You're alone, it's real,
no matter how bad it feels
It's the only thing we know.

Hey there Mr. Zoomorph,
if you listen up close I'll tell you what you are here for
To eat, shit, breed, then to die with the rest of the herd

Still, you think you're better than everyone else
because you've made a career out of lying to yourself
And you believe it, but you really are the only one.
