Jackie Greene - Animal Lyrics

My heart is a beating heart
Oh it's reckless and abandoned
Do your best to understand it, honey

I do not care for most possessions
But I'm possessed by something other
Than the boring things we buy ourselves with money

I do not have to run the race
Beside the men inside this place
Of sharp turns and suburban satisfaction

But baby don't mistake me for someone who doesn't ache
I'm the same as you
With a different reaction

CHORUS
I was born an animal
Wild, wild animal
I was born an animal
Animal

My path is an endless path
It's a long look in the mirror
Never do I near my destination

For out here among the strange encounters
I've counted on my hands to fight and stand
The trials and tribulations

But don't take my words as crude or cheap
I've got a gentle soul deep beneath the bricks
That I'm gonna haul myself around in

Yeah I'm out here trying to do my best
To stay alive among the rapids and the lies
That many men have drowned in

CHORUS

These times are desperate times
We're spited and surrounded
The hounds and vultures lean in unforgiving

We walk upon two legs as men
We burn it down just to build again
We will not make a change to our living

But I believe a change will come for us and those who demand it
For those who can't stand it
Living wild in the gutter

And on that day the sun will burn like a golden hammer
And we will understand and learn
How to live with each other

CHORUS
