Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
I picked it up slow but now it's just a ritual I didn't want the captain's role But I'll steer us over highs and lows It's communal but for you it's individual And that makes me hysterical I'm never gonna let you go (My body's gone cold) And I've lost control Why d'you waste your time with me I'm just an animal? Can you realize my head's a fucking carnival? All I wanna feel's a little chemical rush All I really know is that it won't take long I'll eat you alive, I'm just a fucking animal A simple love, no it could never be enough And I don't know who I can trust I'm teetering upon the edge It's visceral, when I hurt you I can never show This has become habitual And I will do it over and over and over and over and over (My body's gone cold) And I've lost control Why d'you waste your time with me I'm just an animal? Can you realize my head's a fucking carnival? All I wanna feel's a little chemical rush All I really know is that it won't take long I'll eat you alive, I'm just a fucking animal Why d'you waste your time with me I'm just an animal? Can you realize my head's a fucking carnival? All I wanna feel's a little chemical rush All I really know is that it won't take long I'll eat you alive, I'm just a fucking animal
