BLACK LIGHT BURNS LYRICS - Animal

"Animal"



If you could burn it out

Like a tick buried in your hide

If you could tear it out

Like a thorn stuck in your side

Then you can bet that I

Don't want to look at what you find

Because I'm afraid that I

Might want to keep it for myself



I thought I was above you

I hate that I love you



If you could tell a lie

Sharp enough to get through my skin

If you could sell a lie

To make me want to come back again

Then you can bet that I

Want to feel it dribble down my chin

Sometimes I think I'd give everything away

To let that animal in



I thought I was above you

I hate that I love you
