The Futureheads Jekyll Lyrics
Jekyll by The Futureheads
[Verse 1]
Are you an animal all the time?
Or only when the human slips your mind?
Can you control the temperature of your blood?
Can you predict the changes in your mood?
Did you evolve from creatures in the dust?
From the beasts and everything that came before us
Can you control the anger in your voice?
Do you enjoy a spot of mindless violence?
[Chorus]
I remember a fight in school
I was horrified
The evil grins and suffering burnt into my mind
And it left a scar
And I can't go back
But if I could I'd close my eyes
And let it fade to black
[Verse 2]
Do you patrol around your property?
Can you defend yourself
One against three?
Can you control your transformations?
Can you repair lost relationships?
[Bridge]
You're not really sure if you've been born
But I guess you're really here now
Yes you're really here now
Somehow
[Chorus]
I remember a fight in school
I was horrified
The evil grins and suffering burnt into my mind
And it left a scar
And I can't go back
But if I could I'd walk away
And let it fade to black
Are you an animal all the time?
Or only when the human slips your mind?
Can you control the temperature of your blood?
Can you predict the changes in your mood?
Did you evolve from creatures in the dust?
From the beasts and everything that came before us
Can you control the anger in your voice?
Do you enjoy a spot of mindless violence?
[Chorus]
I remember a fight in school
I was horrified
The evil grins and suffering burnt into my mind
And it left a scar
And I can't go back
But if I could I'd close my eyes
And let it fade to black
[Verse 2]
Do you patrol around your property?
Can you defend yourself
One against three?
Can you control your transformations?
Can you repair lost relationships?
[Bridge]
You're not really sure if you've been born
But I guess you're really here now
Yes you're really here now
Somehow
[Chorus]
I remember a fight in school
I was horrified
The evil grins and suffering burnt into my mind
And it left a scar
And I can't go back
But if I could I'd walk away
And let it fade to black
