My Best

There’s an animal in my body
It holds me down and ties my hands
I can no longer try to erase it
Because I can feel it deep within
Baby I tried to give it my best and the rest will be
and now I’m lying in the floor
Baby I tried to give it my best and the rest will be
and now I’m lying on the floor
It’s the animal in, the animal inside my mind
it’s the animal in, the animal all the time
I am the insect that you’ve created
I crawl and pinch and bite the skin
I won’t stop feeding until it’s over
Until I’ve laid my eggs under your skin
Horror in the mind
Horror in the body
Horror in the eyes behind your skin
Horror in the mind
Horror in the body
I watch as you deny
Baby I tried to give it my best and the rest will be
and now I’m lying on the floor
Baby I tried to give it my best and the rest will be
and now I’m lying on the floor
It’s the animal in, the animal inside my mind
it’s the animal in, the animal all the time
It’s the animal in, the animal inside my mind
it’s the animal in, the animal all the time
It’s the animal in, the animal inside my mind
it’s the animal in, the animal all the time
