It's an empty shell I live in The doors are always closed And I spend my weeks Losing my head, resting my bones And they say that nothing's given I guess I'll get nothing at all And I'll accept defeat 'Cause you can't swing When the fight's lost You know Can't see the grass getting greener 'cause Out here ain't nothing but blue And your eyes blood red, the high helps a little But everyone you meet's just passing through White lies take all of the color from you Most nights you don't sleep at all In your blackout blinds you hide Is there any wonder no one ever really tries to call? And you say Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal Ooh, I climb so high just to feel the fall and let it go So look me in the eyes, am I someone else? Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal An animal, an animal And I always have a vision But I always watch it go And then I feel too weak And it's too much, and it's too close Can't see the grass getting greener 'cause Out here ain't nothing but blue And your eyes blood red, the high helps a little But everyone you meet's just passing through White lies take all of the color from you Most nights you don't sleep at all In your blackout blinds you hide Is there any wonder no one ever really tries to call? And you say Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal Ooh, I climb so high just to feel the fall and let it go So look me in the eyes, am I someone else? Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal An animal, an animal Can't see the grass getting greener 'cause Out here ain't nothing but blue And your eyes blood red, the high helps a little But everyone you meet's just passing through And you say Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal Ooh, I climb so high just to feel the fall and let it go So look me in the eyes, am I someone else? Ooh, sometimes I feel like an animal An animal, an animal Ooh Ooh
