"Animal Masks" lyrics

"Animal Masks"

This is a sensory overload
Time set to explode
Does it distress you not to be in control
Your ministry of conspiracy is just the same as tyranny
An industry of misery

Once upon a time
We lost what made us a part of this kingdom
Animalia, we are your servants

What makes you so divine?
Your exhausted ignorance or your lack of spine?
Why can't you see me for me?
Tune in, we're broadcasting icons for hire
An adonis principality in an image empire

I wish you'd just, I wish you'd just, take it off
I want to see you without the face that you hide behind
A sheep with wolves eyes, a mirror showing lies
I wanna see those eyes, stranded and helpless for the first time
The way they're meant to be
But will they ever learn to see?

So we run away from each other, away from the things that we love
'Cause we'd rather be fucked up and weak than be who we know we could be

Animal identity
Oppressive entity
Animal identity

I will channel my hate cycles
Enumerate your idols from your reproduction bibles
Follow the pack mentality, it's only primal
Hate - it's my revival

All the world's a cage and we are major failures
All the world's in rage and we are the unfavored saviors

I wish you'd just, I wish you'd just, take it off
I want to see you without the face that you hide behind
A sheep with wolves eyes, a mirror showing lies
I wanna see those eyes, stranded and helpless for the first time
The way they're meant to be
But will they ever learn to see?

This is a sensory overload
Time set to explode
This is a sensory overload
Just so you know, you're not in control

I look in your eyes and god is not there
This imperfections obsessions half-holy love affair
What do we idolize when our angels are carbon copies?
Nothing will stop me

I wish you'd just, I wish you'd just, take it off
I want to see you without the face that you hide behind
A sheep with wolves eyes, a mirror showing lies
I wanna see those eyes, stranded and helpless for the first time
The way they're meant to be
But will they ever learn...?

All the world's a cage and we are major failures
All the world's in rage and we are the unfavored saviors
All the world's a cage and we are major failures
All the world's in rage and we are the unfavored saviors
