"Different Animals" lyrics

"Different Animals"

I feel like I knew you before
I knew feeling and knowing are different animals
I can feel my wrist in the jaws of a feeling
While knowing got off to God-knows-where

You can hold my head to the light
And I can tell you all of my names
And you can print whatever you find
And you can call me anything

I feel like we been here for days
Laying low in malaise, slamming sugar-free cola
You look like you got some to say
Shame to have and to give ain't the same, but you know that
You know!

Pin me to the table and cut
Sip at the formaldehyde
And you may never know what I was
But you can call me anytime

I feel like a kid in your arms
Hanging high on a gaze, waving dangling toes
You look far-away, looking on
It's amazing you claim we're not different animals
