I'd never trusted myself so little
The light of all my ideas has burned out
I wish I knew how to make it there
But it's her who guides when I'm blind
What could I have done wrong?
Has it been a pile of things
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
Everyone benefits from me winning something
Running so fast now every time I go out
I take the beating to show I'm worth it
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
One day I decided that what you decided was better
Than what was going through my mind
That was the day the light went out
Stopping being me the one who turns it on
And now everything's in the dark
And, skin and bones, my figure
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
Everyone benefits from me winning something
Running so fast now every time I go out
I take the beating to show I'm worth it
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
I always did it all for the love of art
And he's my only master, I know he's gonna kill me
It keeps me awake to disappoint them
If this is a race and I were running
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
Everyone benefits from me winning something
Running so fast now every time I go out
I take the beating to show I'm worth it
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
If I were an animal I know I'd be a Greyhound
