the animals of the world

Lyrics

watching the night animals, bellying close to the ground, i was walking in the dark, it was following some feral scent, like i was crossing the road, like i was, following those streets to their destinations, and the animals of the world, and the animals of the world, find theirs, and when the wind stops, we all stop and we are silent, and in the end we all will bend, we will break away, from the ox head, we are moths around a porch light, we're covered in jars, or pinned to the wall, dried out and displayed, tired out and dismayed, from riding on the winds, biding the tides, riding the winds, or biding the tides, flying with the sun, or perched in a row, i was at a window sill, they were unaware like i was, a moment there and then gone, like i was, looking for a place to rest, and the animals of the world, and the animals of the world, find theirs, and when the wind stops, we all stop and we are silent, and in the end, we all will bend, we will break away, from the ox head, we are moths around a porch light, we're covered in jars, or pinned to the wall, dried out and displayed, tired out and dismayed, from riding on the wheels, biding the streets, riding the wheels, or biding the streets
