Animals
Pares fuimus primum (in the beginning we were the same)
Filii matris unius fuerunt (children of the same mother)
Pares fuimus primum
Filii matris unius fuerunt
Pares fuimus primum
Filii matris unius fuerunt
Pares fuimus primum
Filii matris unius fuerunt
Then began
Domination
The prison
Human creation
Break the fences
Destroy the walls
Born as a byproduct of a truly brutal system
Separated from my mother within hours of birth
Still I hear her calling out in desperation
I don't know it yet, but my time on earth is only a matter of days
We are objects of consumerist desire
Of sick and needy humanity
Break the fences
Destroy the walls
Break the fences
Destroy the walls
Used, abused and discarded
For possession and accumulation
Animals, we are all animals
Animals, we all have pain
Animals, we all want to live
Animals, we all want release
We are killed by greed and power
Painful deaths, no honor, no dignity
Animals, we are all animals
Animals, we all have pain
Animals, we all want to live
Animals, we all want release
Look around you, your life
Look inside, your choices
Language freed man from the present
Created history, created future
Imprisoned others and justified it
Glorified the past, created the future
Responsibility and compassion are also part of creation
Animals, we are all animals
Animals, we all have pain
Animals, we all want to live
Animals, we all want release
Animals
Animals
