We’re Domesticated Animals

Verse 1


We used to run on instinct, sleep under open skies


Now we trade our teeth for comfort, trade our truth for ties


Every cage got better lighting, every wall got art


We call it getting civilized, I call it falling apart


Pre-Chorus


They say this is winning, say this is peace


House-broken hearts in a cease-fire sleep


Chorus


We’re domesticated animals


House-broken hearts on a short leash


We call it love, call it progress


Funny how freedom don’t come cheap


We sit, we stay, we swallow it whole


Smile for the hand that holds control


Yeah we’re domesticated animals


House-broken hearts on a short leash


Verse 2


Bills stacked high like trophies, clocks tell us when to eat


We learned which fights are worth avoiding, which thoughts stay on mute


Every soul got a price tag, every sin’s on sale


We bark real loud behind closed doors, then tuck our fragile tails


Pre-Chorus


They say behave and you’ll be fine


Funny how the wild stays on your mind


Chorus


We’re domesticated animals


House-broken hearts on a short leash


Trained to beg for forgiveness


From hands that barely feed


We sit, we stay, we play our role


Trade our fire just to not be cold


Yeah we’re domesticated animals


House-broken hearts on a short leash


Bridge


Still got that itch in our backbone


Still hear the woods when we’re alone


Still dream the fence falls down somehow


Still don’t know how—but we stare at it now


Final Chorus


We’re domesticated animals


House-broken hearts on a short leash


Safe enough to die of boredom


Wild enough to feel the grief


We call it order, call it control


But something feral won’t let go


Yeah we’re domesticated animals


House-broken hearts on a short leash


Tag / Last Line


Still staring at the fence like it owes us something.
