Instincts of an Animal

Babe I have the instincts of an animal
Everything I want I need so natural
But I'll climb the mountains like Hannibal
Everything bringing me down I know is so simple

Forgive me now as darkness looms
Take it as a letter of compromise
I'll be jumping on a boxcar soon
Hoping it takes me to the skies

And I just want you to know
I can't let you go
From my stream of thoughts
And I just wanna jump the boat

Pass me the oil for the lantern
They're saying a harsh wind tonight, power lines down
All I need is a gentle burn
And if it rains too hard we'll all drown

We left the car in the middle of the street
Exchanged final glances timed it well
I made sure you had everything you need
You return to your lover and me to this cell

But I just want you to know
I can't let you go
From my stream of thoughts
And I just wanna jump the boat

But through all my narcissism
My restless emotions
You're the only one that makes me wanna do something
Instead of just trying to be someone

Babe I have the instincts of an animal
Everything I want I need so natural
But I don't wanna turn into a cannibal
Maybe it's not too high but not so simple
