Animals

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 its shining through the trees
and as a 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 cant 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 leg 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
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 onto 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 leg 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

If I was a child
I might kiss you on the face
hold onto you, beg you
But I ain't a childB
