Animals Lyrics

Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals

Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Baby I'm

So what you trying to do to me?
It's like we can't stop, we're enemies
But we get along when I'm inside you, ayy
You're like a drug that's killing me
I cut you out entirely
But I get so high when I'm inside you

Yeah, you can start over, you can run free
You can find other fish in the sea
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me
I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me
But no, oh

Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals

Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Baby, I'm

So if I run it's not enough
You're still in my head forever stuck
So you can do what you wanna do, ayy
I love your lies I'll eat 'em up
But don't deny the animal
That comes alive when I'm inside you

Yeah, you can start over you can run free
You can find other fish in the sea
You can pretend it's meant to be
But you can't stay away from me
I can still hear you making that sound
Taking me down rolling on the ground
You can pretend that it was me
But no, oh

Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals

Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Baby, I'm

Don't tell no lie, lie, lie, lie
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah

No girl, don't lie, lie, lie, lie (no girl don't lie)
You can't deny, ny-ny-ny (you can't deny)
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yo, oh
Whoa, oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals
Just like animals (yeah)
Animals (yeah)
Like animals-mals (yeah)
Ow

Baby, I'm preying on you tonight
Hunt you down, eat you alive
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals

Maybe you think that you can hide
I can smell your scent for miles (for miles)
Just like animals
Animals
Like animals-mals (ooh)
Baby I'm

Don't tell no lie, lie, lie, lie
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah

No girl, don't lie, lie, lie, lie (no, girl don't lie)
You can't deny-ny-ny-ny (you can't deny)
That beast inside-side-side-side
Yeah, yeah, yeah

What is the Meaning of Animals?

This track delves into the raw, primal instincts that can take over a passionate and intense relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a love so consuming that it's likened to predatory animalistic behavior. It speaks of an irresistible attraction that transcends logic and reason, where even when one tries to escape, the scent lingers on, pulling them back. The song also explores the dark side of such an obsession - the toxicity and destructiveness it can bring forth. Yet, there's an underlying acceptance of this 'beast', a surrender to the intoxicating high it provides. This pulsating narrative serves as a reminder of the thin line between love and obsession, passion and possession.
