Drop Dead Sunset – Animalism

If we studied any other creature in nature and found the record of intra-species violence that human beings have, we would be repulsed by it. We’d view it as a great perversion of natural law – but we wouldn’t deny it.”

Lyrics:
a man is standing at the corner of elm and ninth
staring blankly at the crossing sign
his suit, shirt and tie are covered in blood
and his phone it is ringing again

think you lost me at the part about the bomb
where did you think that this was going to lead?
don’t give me shit about the human race; animals.

when comes down to it they would kill for you
and in the right situation you would too

and did ya think that you had found another way?
did ya think ya had it under control?
here come the bastards who will make you start over
and over and over again…

there’s a killer inside you

a woman stares into a billion pixel eyes
a city seven thousand miles away
pushes a button and the bombs explode; animals.

when comes down to it they would kill for you
and in the right situation you would too

and did ya think that you had found another way?
did ya think ya had it under control?
here come the bastards who will make you start over
and over and over again…

there’s a killer inside you
