[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Bridge] So let your walls come crashing down Let your dress fall to the ground Let me see your smile At the corner of the [?] Be your words for awhile Be a song for awhile [Chorus] 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
