I'm used to the roar of anger
All the screaming in pain
The animals inside my head
Are driving me insane
I've tried to hard to cage them
To keep the devils tame
But the animals inside my head
Are driving me insane

I'm always being hunted
By demons and relentless beasts
Every day I'm being hunted
While I search for my release
My music isn't loud enough
I need a sharper blade
The animals inside my head
Are driving me insane

Every day is repeating
And no one seems to care
I know you hear my pleading
I stopped asking "is anyone there?"
I'm used to hearing "worthless"
I answer like it's my name
The animals inside my head
Are driving me insane

They're taking me over
And I love the bliss
This gaze staring back at you isn't mine
I'm not going to be missed
I'm giving in to my monsters
They play a better game
But the animals inside my head
Are driving me insane

Now I'm the one who roars in anger
I've ceased to scream in pain
The animals inside my head
Have driven me insane
I've tried to hard to cage them
To keep the devils tame
But the animals inside my head
Have finally driven me insane.
Everyone always asks you, "What's going on in your mind?", so I've answered it. Everything in here has a specific meaning, even the rhyming symbolizes something. We all have demons, just some are a little louder.
