Animals Songtext
von Case Studies

I lay my head down on the track again
Yeah, they say the whistle blows for me
But I don′t hear it as it comes my way
I see the moon, it's shining through the trees
And as the fog rolls through the night
I feel a push and then I′m blowing through the breeze

And as my body falls on through the sky
I ain't sorry, I can't worry
About what I have gone and left behind

I′m a snake on the ground
I′m some birds flying alone in the dark
I'm a bear chewing through my legs to get free
I′m a tiger with a knife buried in my back
I'm a wolf running scared because I′m
Hunted and under attack
Yeah, I'm hunted and under attack


Don′t try to touch me now 'cause I can't feel a thing
And I don′t hear your cries and moans
And I don′t feel your sadness anymore
There's just this trail that I have set my feet upon
Don′t try and catch me 'cause your fingers
Just can′t hold on to what I've become

And as I look on what is left of my reflection
I ain′t sorry, I can't worry
About what I have gone and left behind

I'm a snake on the ground
I′m some birds flying alone in the dark
I′m a bear chewing through my legs to get free
I'm a tiger with a knife buried in my back
I′m a wolf running scared because I'm
Hunted and under attack
Yeah, I′m hunted and under attack

If I was a man
I might take the time to set things right
To walk the right road
But I ain't a man
And if I was a child
I might kiss you on the face
Hold on to you, beg you
But I ain′t a child
