VERSE 1
hold me down, my teeth are dangerous
and i am too far gone to know
if i return and i have nothing at all to say
maybe it’s just because i am an animal

CHORUS
i just want to taste a little more
i’m begging you now
give me a piece of the world
and i’ll swear to amend my life
please let me be
fierce for myself
resolutely
i’ll face the city
yeah, dagger down

VERSE 2
it may be a shame to have to live this way
though i can see the thought never crossed your mind
a chain of refléxes, offénse to defénses
maybe it’s all because we are animals--

CHORUS 2
but i just want to taste a little more
i’m begging you now
give me a place in the world
and i swear, i’ll amend my life
please let us be
fierce for ourselves
‘nd effortlessly
we’ll scale the city
yeah, daggers down

repeat CHORUS 1
resolutely
i’ll face the city
yeah, resolutely
i’ll face the city
dagger down
