I like it quiet in my soul

So I can hear the earth turn below me

I am an enigma to myself

And simple to others

I think too much and say too little

I pour over and over words before they leave my head

My shadow is the only one

The only one that knows the things I've never said

All the things I've never said

I romanticize my past

To make it easier to carry

I'm charmed by every dream

And I follow like a fiend

The here and now is a place

Is a place that I've rarely been

The only time I believe in God is when you throw your hair back and tie it high

The only time I believe in God is when you're, when you're driving me wild

Like an animal

Like an animal

I hang onto my hang-ups like cursed gold

A stubborn gambler that never folds

And in the avenues of my mind

I lose the truth from time-to-time

Running it down, running it down

I get tired, I get tired

I lean into things that aim to kill

To catch a thrill, but still, the storms, they echo

I've been a thousand men

I've lived and died over and over

Over and over, over and over

Searching and searching for the best me

The only time I love myself is when I'm in your stare stripped bare, yeah

The only time that I love myself is when you're driving me wild

Like an animal

Like an animal

Animal

The here and now is a place I've rarely been

But you pull me in

The here and now is a place I've rarely been

But you pull me in

The here and now is a place (I've rarely been)

But you pull me in

The here and now is a place (I've rarely been)

But you pull me in
