If I’m only human, why they hang myself, nor explain myself?
They don’t wanna do this, but I know myself
Yeah I know me well
’Cause you’re only human, I would other kind
Maybe you’re too kind
Tear right through you, like an animal
You gotta let me go
Living for the night, don’t want, don’t hold me
Can’t hold me!
You pray on my heart I’m worth, don’t cage me
Unchain me!!
It’s un-natural, you won’t capture me
Like an animal
Gotta set me free
Am I an animal, animal?
Animal, animal
Animal, animal
Animal, animal
Fighting for the freedom,
To express myself, wanna blame myself
’Cause we’re only human, and time is precious now
I won’t hold you down!
Never be your victim, going for the kill if it makes me feel
More than just a human
It’s un-natural, gotta let you go!
Living for the night, don’t want, don’t hold me
Can’t hold me!
You pray on my heart I’m worth, don’t cage me
Unchain me!!
It’s un-natural, you won’t capture me
Like an animal
Gotta set me free
Am I an animal, animal?
Animal, animal
Animal, animal
Animal, animal
If I’m not yours
You gotta let me go
’Cause I’m not yours
You pray on my heart I’m worth, don’t cage me
Unchain me!!
It’s un-natural, you won’t capture me
Like an animal
Gotta set me free
Am I an animal, animal?
Animal, animal
Animal, animal
Animal, animal
Animal, animal
