[Intro: Yoav Landau]
(Animal)
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
[Verse 1: Sam Haft, Yoav Landau]
My fist unclenches
I'm losing all of my senses, I freeze (Animal, animal, animal, animal)
I'm tense, defenseless
Suspense presents with intense mystery (Animal, animal, animal, animal)
I move my body
But it feels like someone taking over me (Animal, animal, animal, animal)
My thoughts are gone
Like they're locked up and someone threw away the key
It's like a creature from a nightmare
[Chorus: Sam Haft, Yoav Landau]
I do not feel like myself
I think I might be something else
And I don't think I can tell if I am dreaming
My mind is packed and leaving
I'm feeling like an animal (Animal)
[Verse 2: Sam Haft, Yoav Landau]
Don't know what has occurred
But I see in third person view (Animal, animal, animal, animal)
I try to talk to myself
But the voice I hear sounds just like you (Animal, animal, animal, animal)
The words I've spoken make me
Think that my mind has broke in two (Animal, animal, animal, animal)
Not in control or without a soul
There's no telling what I'll do
I'm like a creature from a nightmare
[Chorus: Sam Haft, Yoav Landau]
I do not feel like myself
I think I might be something else
And I don't think I can tell if I am dreaming
My mind is packed and leaving
I'm barely breathing
Did I always have the potential I'm revealing?
I have become something new
Or am I turning into you?
And will I even make it through this delusion?
Or is this evolution?
I'm feeling like an animal (Animal)
[Interlude: Yoav Landau]
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
(Animal, animal, animal, animal)
[Chorus: Sam Haft, Yoav Landau]
I do not feel like myself
I think I might be something else
And I don't think I can tell if I am dreaming (Animal)
My mind is packed and leaving
I'm barely breathing
Did I always have the potential I'm revealing?
I have become something new
Or am I turning into you?
And will I even make it through this delusion?
Or is this evolution? My new solution?
Losing sight of what I once was
It might get gruesome
I feel like I'm ten-feet tall
And nothing frightens me at all
Ready to fight and tonight, I'm out of control
I'm finally done concealing
I'm feeling like an animal (Animal)
