An Animal

I did my time
Endless days and nights
I paid for my sins so I could come back and sin again
I've seen the light
Burning hot and bright
It scorched my skin
I said fuck that and came back to sin again
I've been running like a convict across state lines
Looking for answers
An easy way out
An alibi
Free will for those who can afford it
The rest of us be damned
Free, I suppose, with help from your parents
But I can't change who I am
I've got twenty eyes on you and no place to put my hands
I keep my secrets buried beneath us
under deep soil and stones
Maybe God will save my soul
but in this world I'm an animal with clothes on
An animal with needs
