Bone Pilots - Animal Lyrics

We smiled while the walls came down
And piled around our feet
We laughed as the ground fell out
From underneath us
We tried not to let it on

Oh, was it wasted time you blamed
When your animal youth grew tame?
Oh, when the light in you went out
You got afraid

You love like sinking sand
Disguised as solid ground
And you fight like a masquerade
I don't know who you are right now

You never used to lose your cool
But times got desperate
And even your pillow talk turned cruel

Oh, was it wasted time you blamed
When your animal youth grew tame?
Oh, when the light in you went out
You set it free
