Song Lyrics

It feels like thunder
When we're slowly diggin' in

It kinda makes me wonder
About the lovers that I've been
Lyin' in my bed with the hands tied up
I knew it all along that it wasn't enough
'Cause when I gotta taste of you
I found somethin' I could sink my teeth into

It's an ache that never heals
It's the deepest cut you feel
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me

It's the darker side of lust
It's the other side of us
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me
The animal in me

I wanna be your last breath
Before we suffocate
A kiss you can't forget
Like a wedding on a rainy day

The chills keep shootin' down the back of my neck
Like a freight train poundin' in the pit of my chest
'Cause when I got a taste of you
I found somethin' I could sink my teeth into

It's an ache that never heals
It's the deepest cut you feel
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me

It's the darker side of lust
It's the other side of us
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me

It's a hurt that never heals
It's the deepest cut you feel
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me

It's the darker side of lust
It's the other side of us
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me

It's an ache that never heals (an ache that never heals)
It's the deepest cut you feel (the deepest cut you feel)
It's the thing in you that feeds
The animal in me (animal in me)

The animal
The animal in me
Animal in me (animal in me)
