Animals Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It'll shake you of control and take command
So look around and open your eyes
There's a hunger buried deep that we disguise
We seal our hearts
Before we fall apart
Clawing at our scars waiting in the dark
We seal our hearts
Clawing at our scars
To be the animal
To be the animal
To be the animal
And you will feel
Like a cannibal
In this place nobody is your friend
Believing in them will break you in the end
We've been hiding and howling and begging for more
The beast inside has banging at our door
We seal our hearts
Before we fall apart
Clawing at our scars waiting in the dark
We seal our hearts
Before we fall apart
Clawing at our scars waiting in the dark
To be the animal
To be the animal
To be the animal
And you will feel
Like a cannibal
To be the animal
To be the animal
To be the animal
And you will feel
The lyrics to Animals' song "Animals" convey a message of resilience and strength in the face of obstacles. The opening lines, "Nada detiene nuestros pasos firmes / Somos verdaderos guerreros del viento" express a sense of determined forward motion, as the singer declares that nothing can stop them and that they are true warriors of the wind. The song goes on to describe the challenges that these warriors face, such as "barreras estructuradas / Que quieren frenar esta mágica forma de vida" (structural barriers that seek to halt this magical way of life). Despite these challenges, the singers refuse to be swayed from their path: "No dejaremos de ser lo que somos / Por más que nos queran sacar del camino" (We will not stop being who we are / No matter how much they may try to take us off our path).
The song celebrates the power of community and the importance of sticking together in the face of adversity. The lines "Somos hijos de esta cultura / Que creamos juntos" (We are children of this culture / That we created together) emphasize the communal nature of the group, and the idea that they are all working towards a common goal. The repeated refrain of "Hoy" (Today) adds a sense of urgency to the song, as though the singers are reminding themselves and each other that they must act in the present moment and not put off their goals until tomorrow.
