lyrics

It was a long, long time ago, all of the answers are not clear to me, just how this came to find you
It was a long long time for sure, and I was hoping it would pass you by! But no it lights up your
eyes!
It starts in your soul, it dilates the blood. It pounds in your chest, floods your heart!
And it’s a mystic, primal spark that guides the beast up from the dark
I see its magic stirring in ya
Just let the spirit rise, I see the animal in your eyes
The eyes of a blood-thirsty winner!
And it comes as no surprise, I see the animal, the animal in your eyes
By the hue of the blood red moon - its intoxicating power charges you and takes you over soon.
I know you’re scared, and I know it hurts
But it’s more of a gift than a curse
It doesn't matter what you want to see
It doesn't matter who you want to be
It only matters if you can dream it
And the spirit never dies, with the animal in your eyes
And you love it! I can see it
Hail the full moon in the skies, you’ve got the animal in your eyes
You got the animal in your eyes!
