Three Days Grace - Animal I Have Become

INFLUENTIAL SONGS - PART TWO

I was typing up a very detailed and upsetting write-up of a nightmare I have been having of late. The nightmare upsets me greatly. While typing, I was listening to Three Days Grace and this song, Animal I have Become, started playing. A few lines jumped out at me:

"Help me believe, it's not the real me..." and "Somebody get me through this nightmare!"

I felt the song was reaching into my head and pulling out my thoughts. Here is a youtube video of the song. The full lyrics are below it.



Lyrics:

I can't escape this hell
So many times I've tried
But I'm still caged inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can't control myself

Someone if you can see
The dark inside of me
Noone would ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe, It's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal (this animal x's 2)

I can't escape myself
So many times I've lied
But there's still rage inside
Somebody get me through this nightmare
I can't control myself

Someone if you can see
The dark inside of me
Noone would ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe, It's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
Help me believe, It's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal

Somebody help me through this nightmare
I can't control myself
Somebody wake me from this nightmare
I can't escape this cell

This Animal x's 7

Someone if you can see
The dark inside of me
Noone would ever change this animal I have become
Help me believe, It's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal I have become
Help me believe, It's not the real me
Somebody help me tame this animal

This animal I have become.
