Love is like an animal
Our feet against the dirt
Our feral eyes are not surprised by what we tried to hurt
Our yellow teeth
The grit and spit
I tried to hold your hand.
But then you bit me hard
You broke the skin on my heart
We were just kids having fun, behind cars, sneaking into the bars
Wait long and it falls apart
You broke the skin on your heart
The days were long and we were dumb like animals
Young love is like an animal
instinctual and proud
Our boundary lines were crossed that's fine it's nicer when it's loud
Our hissing lips and furrowed brows
I howl as you walk by.
But then you bit me hard
You broke the skin on my heart
We were just kids having fun, behind cars, sneaking into the bars
Wait long and it falls apart
You broke the skin on your heart
The days were long and we were dumb like animals.
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life
It goes on.
But then we bit down hard and ripped the skin off our hearts
We are alive and we go on with life
and make silent goodbyes
We sew it up and restart
and mend the skin on our hearts
The days were long and we were dumb
Yes these days are long and we were dumb like animals
