Kyle Landon - Selfish Animal Lyrics

Thought gets in my way

Paths are laid
Out by those
Who walk them
I told you
World is sin
Lazy men
Shouldn't live
Survival
Revival
Hide in the
Hills of bears
Always scared

Mongoose hunt mamba for fun
Struggle with reaper on daily till done
I can see people affording their fat
Only struggle with taming tabby cat
I don't think people have value today
What have you done for me other than say
"You can do anything!" results delayed
Waited too long for the end of these days

Selfish selfish me
You should forget me
I dread the time we
Spend outside molding

I've always been running but never away
I feel that order will bring the end of days
I'll go off the grid and forget how to pray
I'll be selfish animal stuck in my ways
My instinct can't fail if there is no thought
Friends family law and emotion forgot
I am not alone if I fight with myself
Die of old age at 30 and in perfect health

Why do you
Feel like you
Deserve this
Shallow bliss
Feel better
All you want
What you need
Is some pain
Solve it then
Achievement
Is the one
Way to live

Selfish selfish me
You should forget me
I dread my thinking
I've lost control of me

The world is a wreck let me tell you just how
Everyone is so selfish my voice they won't allow
I just wanna talk
But I don't want to hear what you have to say
It takes a bad day to see the light of a good day
Why do we need these mistakes to learn from?
Why is everybody's soul numb?
Could a caveman hear voices in his head?
Could he even process that one day he'd be dead?
I can see your midriff that's all that I want
In that tank top drool on me and taunt
Please, my mind is scattered please set me on track
Civilize me, fix up my brain structure and reattach
I guess I'll binge pleasure and pills
I wanted to forget

My problems stem from opposite

I wanted to be an animal because war courses through us
But for happiness they tell me there are more sources to us
