Lyrics

[Verse 1]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

You'll never leave me broken at your feet

'Cause just when you think you know me well

You'll create a, you'll create an A-N-I-M-A-L

[Verse 2]

Hold tight, I'm about to blow

'Bout to break out of the cage

I'm about to lose my shit

Hot head, I'm red-eyed

Howling at the moonlight

I'm just the way you wanted me

[Verse 3]

All that I show is love

But all that you hear is hate

If all that I am ain't enough

Then I'll show you what I can be

[Verse 4]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

You'll never leave me broken at your feet

'Cause just when you think you know me well

You'll create a, you'll create an A-N-I-M-A-L

[Verse 5]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

Yeah, I will be just what I wanna be

'Cause just when you think you know me well

You'll create a, you'll create an A-N-I-M-A-L

[Verse 6]

A-N-I-M-A-L

A-N-I-M-A-L

[Verse 7]

Darkness to daylight

Drowning in paradise

This is all I'm meant to be (A-N-I-M-A-L)

I'm fearless, I'm out there

I'm let loose with no care

Is this the way you wanted me? (A-N-I-M-A-L)

[Verse 8]

And all that I show is love

But maybe that's not what you need

[Verse 9]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

You'll never leave me broken at your feet (A-N-I-M-A-L)

'Cause just when you think you know me well

You'll create a, you'll create an A-N-I-M-A-L

[Verse 10]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

You'll never leave me broken at your feet (A-N-I-M-A-L)

'Cause just when you think you know me well

You'll create a, you'll create an A-N-I-M-A-L

[Verse 11]

We're runnin' out, yeah, runnin' out

We're runnin' out of time

The fire is burning with hate

We're runnin' out, yeah, runnin' out

We're runnin' out of time

But still I will rise from the flames

[Verse 12]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

Yeah, I will be just what I wanna be

[Verse 13]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

You'll never leave me broken at your feet (A-N-I-M-A-L)

'Cause just when you think you know me well

You'll create a, you'll create an A-N-I-M-A-L

[Verse 14]

You'll never take the greatest part of me

Yeah, I will be just what I wanna be (A-N-I-M-A-L)

'Cause just when you think you know me well

You'll create a, you'll create an A-N-I-M-A-L
