Well I think you lost your mind
She said a million times
In a case of tired affection
In a race of our design
She closed her eyes and cried:
God, if there’s any justice in life
You'd take your feet off my heart and the needle off the 45
She’s got a fire that grows
Restless to her soul
Relents and then suspects that she’d be reckless not to go
Says I don’t know, but I’ve got a feeling comin' up from below
So in the morning if I’m running at least we had the summer to show
Locked in the backseat
Looking at me, holding me
Like you won’t let up and let me alone
But how could that be
Wait you look, I can’t breathe
I’m knocked down, but strong enough to shout
That you’re an animal
And you can’t stop the habits that form
And I told you they run when you call
And if you had to crawl on back they’d ask nothing at all
She says I shake the facts
And the rest remains intact
In plasticine depictions of the past that seems unpacked
You won’t suspect
And he calls and tells her just to hear her react
And she says man, the farther we run
The harder we act
Like in the backseat
Looking at me, holding me
Like you won’t let up and leave me alone
But how could that be?
Wait look, I can’t breathe
I’m knocked down but strong enough to shout
That you’re an animal
And you can’t stop the habits that form
And I told you they run when you call
And if you had to crawl on back they’d ask nothing at all
And like an animal
You loved me then you left me alone
I hope that you’ll go where you go
When you dance, you look like someone I used to know
Because you look so good when you wake me in the middle of the night
And say take me like you know I like it
And we’ll make believe that waiting wasn't wasted time
And like an animal
I ran into your wrecking ball
And I crashed into the record wall
'Cause when we dance
We’re just a little bit out of control
And like an animal
You can’t stop the habits that form
And I told you they run when you call
And if you had to crawl on back they’d ask nothing at all
And like an animal
You loved me then you left me alone
I hope that you’ll go where you go
When you dance, you look like someone I used to know
