Lyrics

There's a grain of truth that says you
Shouldn't open up your mouth
Until you have solutions to the
Problems that you criticise
Generate enthusiasm
For the world around you
Concentrate upon the truth and do your
Best to keep a focus on the lies
So I tried
This is to say
I'll be dead before you wake to greet the day
I'll make it clean and not too gruesome
So you don't have to clean my
Blood off the carpet
It's ugly and painful that way
Maybe there's a reason maybe God is in his heaven or
Perhaps we are experiments of creatures from another star
But nothing that I've seen or heard or
Felt has ever managed to persuade me
That the animals who greet me every day is what we are
What we are
I have to say
All the friends I had got lost along the way
And though I'm tempted to go back sometimes
I'd rather they found me
Symbolically lifeless
Empty of anger and hate
What do you see?
What can you feel?
How can you tell if it's something or real?
Is it the truth?
Could it be lies?
Will it be there when you open your eyes?
Ask me why I feel this way
But you're only a heartbeat away
And tomorrow you'll believe it's strange
But you're only a heartbeat
Maybe there's a reason maybe God is in his heaven or
Perhaps we are experiments of creatures from another star
But nothing that I've seen or heard or
Felt has ever managed to persuade me
That the animals who greet me every day is what we are
What we are
What we are (that's what we are, we are)
What we are (that's what we are, we are)
What we are (that's what we are, we are)
What we are (that's what we are)
That's what we are (yeah, yeah)
Animals (that's what we are)
We're animals (that's what we are)
Animals (that's what we are)
Animals (that's what we are)
We're animals (that's what we are)
We're animals (that's what we are)
Animals (that's what we are)
We're animals, animals (that's what we are)
(That's what we are)
