Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I know regret like a friend I held to die, I guess I'm cynical
And now the wolves are in the throne room standin' by
To burn the citadel
[Verse 2]
You were young, you never had a chance to
Face the sun, I hate whatever you've become
But you should know I'll never leave here without you
[Verse 3]
We are animals
Slaves to change through natural perfection
Natural selection
We are animals
Slaves to change through natural perfection
Natural selection
[Verse 4]
And now the light cuts out 'cause we're goin' down
It's unforgivable
When the storm wakes up, we better learn to drown
Become invisible
[Verse 5]
I was young, I never really learned to bite my tongue
And now the smoke will feel my lungs
You know I'll never leave here without you
[Verse 6]
We are animals
Slaves to change through natural perfection
Natural selection
We are animals
Slaves to change through natural perfection
Natural selection
[Verse 7]
We are animals
We can't help holdin' on
To life
To life
So say goodbye
[Verse 8]
We are animals
Slaves to change through natural perfection
Natural selection
We are animals
Slaves to change through natural perfection
Natural selection
