i fantasize about my family's death
no its not something i like its just something to think about
and maybe when i go outside ill burn my eyes on the sun
i might finally keel over and die
oh id like that
i am animals
this is it
this is it all
this is what you wanted to see
and maybe when i finally die ill ascend into the sky and meet my dad and realize he's not such a bad guy. and then ill realize im a fool for trusting him, for believing him, and god, oh why i cry man. maybe then ill finally die and whisper into a secret plane of which the normal eye can't see. my soul will evaporate, my heart will ache and flutter, my brain will confuse and die, along with my body.
maybe then ill finally die, in the endless black sky
are you writing this down mrs. therapist?
do you have a warm spot for my thoughts to stay?
do you have a warm slot in your filing cabinet?
what if i told you death was my aching, my calling
take me into your arms, so i can cry on your shoulders.
my soothing sounds make me feel better
i am animals
this is it.

i watch the people there
the birds see me stare
and i wish i could be just like them
and i wish to see another day
i miss you
id love to see you
(even in your dad's apartment)
we'll watch movies and laugh at strange suggestions
we'll sleep on the floor in separate rooms
i know its the same for you
this is why i feel comfortable saying
this is why i feel comfortable saying
youre beautiful and i love you
youre beautiful and i love you

to the cats behind the screen
only worth three 20's and one 15
youre worth much more to me
and you lick yourself so gently
hold your head up high
turn your marble eyes to me
hold yourself low
hold yourself
and dont ever let them see your break
dont tell them how your heart, it aches
hold yourself low
hold yourself
and dont ever put your back to the glass
feel the cold hands, running down your back
hold yourself low
hold yourself

to the streets i go to a place where no one roams
i will be alone
and as sure as robin hood will save his fair maiden and jump into the castle
i will be alone
and as sure as robin hood will go and storm the castle for his fair maiden
ill be alone
and as sure as robin hood will go and storm the castle for his fair maiden
ill be so alone
in the streets, take me home take me home take me home
(take me home ill be alone)
and as sure as robin hood storm the castle for his fair maiden
take me home ill be alone

absence makes the heart grow fonder, thats what they say, i know
absinthe makes the heart grow stronger, thats what they say, i know

oh dear kitty
stare at stars from my window
oh kitty
come up sit by my side
oh kitty
like a lover, a sweet brother of mine
i always have you on my side
and your friends are all messed up ):
one can't close his mouth
and your friends are all messed up
running
up and down the halls at 3am
oh kitty
i have your laser pointer ready to go
and your friends are all messed up
one just hisses and scratches
and your friends are all messed up
(meow meow)
i remember the last time i saw you
being taken by the vet
im sorry i couldnt see you
"no we can't go today too sad"
that your friends all died
that your friends all died
that your friends all died
that your friends are all dead
we were both screamed at
you took the pain away
you were a good cat
you took the pain away
we're both screamed at...
you take the pain away
you're a good cat!
you take the pain away (:

im walkin away
from my life and from dreams
from my home and from my friends
to a light that new
one thats mine
you'll find me
im walkin away
short stacked in a state of mind
so closely followed behind
id die if i could
id die if it were right
and you
take it so seriously, i know
pay it no minding now
and ill be all you see
you're all the same
you're to blame
but i
i won't back down, i'll try-
FUCK
im dying now!
so cold, will be flying now
animals,
youre all the same
hey
hey you animals playing poker
driving down to the sunday theatre
rough and rowdy, drinking beers
i think you dropped your cards heres another
hey you animals playing poker
driving down to the sunday brothel
on her head you've smashed a bottle
to her kids she does something awful
hey you animals playing poker
take her home now so you can fuck her
9 months later theres a problem
in the pantry awaits rock bottom
hey you animals playing poker
you're the one who did this to her
(she's the one who brought this on her)
im the one without a father
and i think i should end it
i really think about ending it
i really think about ending it
