The opening track of Loner, as one reviewer put it, “builds from silence into the opening lyrics and pounding drums” – blending classic darkwave with modern EDM.
The lyrics of “Animal” express the careless attitude that now-sober songwriter Matthew Brue once had as an alcoholic.
[Chorus]
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
[Verse 1]
You know, you know me
I like to be intoxicated
You know, you know me
And feel unappreciated
You know, you know me
I like to be adulterated
You know, you know me
[Pre-Chorus]
They say boy you know, it's time to go
You gotta give it up
They say, they say, they say give it up
They say boy you know, it's time to go
You gotta give it up
They say, they say, they say give it up
[Chorus]
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
[Verse 2]
You know, you know me
I like to get obliterated
You know, you know me
To be a bit debilitated
You know, you know me
I like it when I'm agitated
You know, you know me
[Pre-Chorus x2]
They say boy you know, it's time to go
You gotta give it up
They say, they say, they say give it up
They say boy you know, it's time to go
You gotta give it up
They say, they say, they say give it up
[Chorus]
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
[Bridge]
Don't know what you want from me
You don't even know my name
Tell me what you want from me
You don't even know my know my
Know know, know-know-know-know
[Chorus]
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
I'm an animal, you're an animal
