Animal
Grises Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Casi una orgánica necesidad
Quema mi piel el calor
Con una típica intensidad
Inevitable sensación
De que no puede llegar
El aire al pulmón
No es un incendio vulgar
Ayer,
Busqué un hogar
Y se transformó
En mi prisión
Dejé morir a mi animal
En un rincón
Ahora se que en cautividad
No sale el sol
Resucitar al animal
Se convirtió en mi obsesión
Ayer,
Busqué un hogar
Y se transformó
En mi prisión
Dejé morir a mi animal
En un rincón
Ahora se que en cautividad
No sale el sol
Resucitar al animal
Se convirtió en mi obsesión
The lyrics of Grises's song "Animal" express the intense desire that the singer has to unleash their inner beast, which they equate to a feral animal. They feel a burning need in their skin, an organic necessity to let out this wildness that they feel is inherent to them. The lyrics suggest that this is not just a passing desire or a fleeting feeling, but a powerful and undeniable sensation that cannot be ignored. They feel like they are suffocating in captivity, unable to breathe properly or express themselves fully, and they long to set themselves free.
The second verse describes the singer's attempt to find a home, a place where they feel comfortable and safe, but instead they find themselves trapped in a prison. They describe how they let their animal die in a corner, possibly a metaphor for how they have been repressing their true selves, and now they feel like they are living in darkness with no way out. The end of the verse reveals that the singer's obsession now is to resuscitate their animal, to break free from their constraints and let their inner nature take over once again.
Overall, "Animal" is a powerful song about the primal and untamed parts of ourselves that we often keep hidden or suppressed. It is a call to break free from captivity and societal expectations to embrace our true nature and desires, even if they are wild and ferocious.
