Animals On An Island Lyrics

You and I constructed by the most aloof and devious intentions

We separate divide and warp and recognise not a single thing we see

Well I do not yearn for their most exclusive of suggestions

Or submit to the masters that you serve

Be not surprised by the lack of your exposure to diversions

All the waters never dived in or disturbed

We're all animals on an island

All those broken bridges submerged for miles

Suffocating in these wide and open prisons

Offered dream tickets by those with alligator smiles

There's a whole lot of ugly out there

Bequeathed as beauty one might say

By curators and closet dictators not a stitch of their tapestries dare stray

Well I've most of all excelled at pretending to be a person

All my life nearly each and every day

In the pharmacies and the behemoths of those faceless interventions

Twas the red pill I only ever chose to take

Everything was go until it stopped

You thought everything was perfect until it was not

I do not strive to purposely be so out of place

While I pretend to be a person each and every day
