The Wrestle

[Verse 1]
The crumpled ocean is
No boat trip
The dark waters
Stole my clothing

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The shape stirs beneath me
A pulse pounds along bloodstreams
The first bite marks the beginning of

[Chorus]
The clotheless wrestle
With the clotheless animal

[Verse 2]
Bare those teeth to me
Please, man eater
You can see all of me
Naked with fear

[Pre-Chorus 2]
This is the test I left land for
To grip flesh and pull muscle in
The vice clinch of the struggle
I can't give in to the weight of

[Chorus]
The clotheless wrestle
With the clotheless animal

[Post-Chorus]
Animal
Animal
Animal

[Verse 3]
My enemy
Please stay close to me
I've no breath left
You cold breath thief

[Pre-Chorus 3]
The last gasp from a burst lung
The fight fathers, the weak son
The last taste of salt in my mouth
My skin breaks with no sound

[Bridge]
I'm torn
Limb from limb
There is bone, there is gristle
And spit

[Chorus]
In the clotheless wrestle
The clotheless animal

[Outro]
Animal
Animal
Animal
Animal
