Marina And The Diamonds - Savages Lyrics
[Verse 1]Murder lives foreverAnd so does warIt's survival of the fittestRich against the poorAt the end of the dayIt's a human traitSewn deep down inside of our DNA[Verse 2]One man can build a bombAnother run a raceTo save somebody's life and have it blow up in his faceI'm not the only one who finds it hard to understandI'm not afraid of GodI am afraid of man[Pre-Chorus]Is it running in our bloodIs it running in our veinsIs it running in our genesIs it in our DNAHumans aren't gonna behave as we think we always shouldYeah, we can bad as we can be good[Chorus 1]Underneath it all we're just savagesHidden behind shirts, ties and marriagesHow could we expect anything at all?We're just animals still learning how to crawl[Verse 3]We live, we dieWe steal, we kill, we lieJust like animalsBut with far less graceWe laugh, we cryLike babies in the nightForever running wildIn the human race[Verse 4]Another day, another tale of rapeAnother ticking bomb to bury deep and detonateI'm not the only one who finds it hard to understandI'm not afraid of GodI am afraid of man[Pre-Chorus]You can see it on the newsYou can watch it on tvYou can read it on your phoneYou can say it's troublingHumans aren't gonna behave as we think we always shouldYeah, we can be bad as we can good[Chorus 2]Underneath it all we're just savagesHidden behind shirts, ties and marriagesHow could we expect anything at all?We're just animals still learning how to crawlUnderneath it all we're just savagesHidden behind shirts, ties & marriagesTruth is in us all, cradle to the graveWe're just animals still learning to behave[Bridge]All the hate coming out from a generationWho got everything and nothing guided by temptationWere we born to abuse, shoot a gun and runOr has something deep inside of us come undone?Is it a human trait or is it learned behaviorAre you killing for yourself or killing for your Savior?[Chorus 2]
