I've been drowned out by the rain Still I'm wishing I could stay But I'm sorry, my old friend I've got to leave you once again And despite what I might say Measure pleasure by the pain Measure pleasure by the twisting Of the metal in the vein And it might be very hard Can't be more than what we are Can't be more till it's over
Here comes the resurrection Everybody's got to die from something Nothing ever left to leave you when you go I saw you strip my babies Animal, the way you cut them might be Animal, the way I cut you from below
So you goad me into spite It's the cruelty that you like It's the waiting for the one thing That you never could define Fill the longing just because Emasculates the ones you love Have to wait till it's over
We are the less than mighty Never was a way I thought it could be Never quite enough to leave you when you go I saw you strip my babies Animal, the way you cut them might be Animal, the way I cut you from below
I've been drowned out by the rain Still I'm wishing I could stay But I'm sorry, my old friend I've got to leave you once again And despite what I might say Measure pleasure by the pain Measure pleasure by the twisting Of the metal in the vein And it might be very hard Can't be more than what we are Can't be more till it's over
Here comes the resurrection Everybody's got to die from something Nothing ever left to leave you when you go I saw you strip my babies Animal, the way you cut them might be Animal, the way I cut you from below
And if anger is the ending Of the things that we've become For the mother and the father And the sister and the son Through the shallow without wanting Realisation to mistake In the ugliness, the open All the things we can't replace I will control I will control I will control I will control I will control I will control I will control I will control
