Well we like to think that we are so far above everything around us and,
We are not animals, no, we are something different
But the truth is that we have not rid ourselves of those instincts at all,
And given the chance back into a primal beast, we all will fall.

Because humans are full of some real dark desires
And as soon as their reason retires
They will all come flooding right back out again.
This idea of humanity
has been constructed so that we
don't have to admit that we are all the same.

Yeah, you and me and the murderer
who lives right down the street from here
We're all human no matter how much you complain
The CEO, the communist
The dictator with an iron fist.
We are one, yes we are all the same.

It's not the goodness in our heart
That really sets our species apart,
People are locked up and they are gunned down every day.
The biggest difference here is that we are all ashamed,
That we all still partake in nature's ways.

Nobody wants the best for anybody but themselves.
It gets proven again and again.
People smashing others down, so that they may be higher up
But I am still hoping for the day when,

We all at least acknowledge that we are all, deep down, animals.
We have not risen above nature yet.
I'm not saying it's impossible, but come on let's all face the facts,
There's a long way to go if that's where we want to get.
