lyrics

We're all wild animals running for the first bite
And we fight, sending up the dust
Ducking from the hearse
Living for the lust
The taste of the rust in our mouth

I'll cry every time my teeth, my mane, my claws won't shine
Brighter than yours
I wanna be hit harder than you
And I don't care about the bruises on my heart
On my heart

But the dust will fall back
The hearse won't run out
Of its dark, black, gluey fuel

We want to delay the day
The comma become a full stop
Postpone the moment when they'll
Muddle our bones up
Because we won't even share the dirt we will rest in

We're all wild animals running for the first bite
And we fight, sending up the dust
Ducking from the hearse
Living for the lust
The taste of the rust

Maybe I'm a wild animal running for the first bite
And I fight, sending up the dust
Ducking from the hearse
Living for the lust
The taste of the rust
I'm asking the nurse
How to slake my thirst
Because I must burst my curse
That's why I keep on singing this verse
I'm leaving the Earth
To rule the universe
You may think I'm the worst
Even if I'm just
Living in reverse
Running to my birth

That's why I keep on singing
