Miike Snow - Animal Lyrics






There was a time when my world
Was filled with darkness, darkness, darkness
Then I stopped dreaming now
I'm supposed to fill it up with something, something, something

In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody
I knew before, long, long, long ago
But I'm still trying to make my mind up
Am I free or am I tied up?

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip
Yeah I slip, I'm still an animal

There is a hole and I tried to fill it up with money, money, money
But it gets bigger till your horse is always running, running, running
In your eyes I see the eyes of somebody
Who could be strong

Tell me if I'm wrong
And now I'm pulling your disguise up
Are you free or are you tied up?

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip
Yeah I slip, I'm still an animal

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip
Yeah I slip, I'm still an animal

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip
Yeah I slip, I'm still an animal

I change shapes just to hide in this place
But I'm still, I'm still an animal
Nobody knows it but me when I slip
Yeah I slip, I'm still an animal

    Every lyric video I've seen misses what I feel is the best part of the song... in the middle of the instrumental bit, toward the end of the song, yeah? You can hear the lead humming the tune of the song. I guess it's not the video creators fault though...

  59. M.... ....

    This song gives me nostalgia, like a memory I’ve never had.

    It places a picture in my head where I’m sitting at a table in the kitchen at my old house, with my feet hanging off the chair with my deceased grandmother sitting in her old tattered chair watching the tv perked in front of her. It was night, a summer night. I heard booms of the neighbors fireworks, I looked about age 7 or 8. With shoulder lengt light ginger hair.

    I was wearing white socks with no shoes and a light vintage colored pink dress with ruffles lacing off the bottom, my face not visible with my thick hair covering it, but I could tell I was staring into the night through our open door, my hands where crossed on my lap and my knees where touching.

    The table had a bunch of clutter on it, looks like old stuffed animals and tools. With bags hanging over the rims of the chairs.

    My grandmother looked as her eyes were half set on the window besides her and her tv in front of her. Her iconic brown hair was curled as it usually was and she was wearing a long sleeved shirt and long sleeved pants.

    I don’t know where I got this image from, but I only get it from this song, whenever I hear It looked exactly like my old house. It’s not a memory as I’ve never experienced that. It felt like a cool summer night in that picture
