They walk the lines
I tear them openThey move in perfect circles
Polish mass and quiet lines
I’ll undo their perfection
Just to watch them vaporizeThey humble for acceptance
Pay for names and cold applause
I stay feral in the shadows
Tearing holes through all their lawsI don’t fit their little boxes
Don’t respond to trained command
There’s no ribbon on my spirit
There’s no leash around these handsEvery time they try to tame me
I just turn more iron-willed
I’m a fire they can’t smother
I’m a voice they couldn’t stillThey march in rhythm chasing higher praise
I run my own beat through the smoking blazeI’m a savage in a civilized world
Unashamed, uncontained, undeterred
I don’t fit the script
Don’t play their game
My soul wasn’t built to kneel and obeyI’m a savage in a civilized world
Let them bleed
Let them beg to belong
I don’t bow, don’t lie, don’t conformI’m a savage in a civilized world
They lace their dreams in cages
Call their caution something wise
But I found truth in chaos
Where the hunting spirit liesTheir hands are tied in comfort
Mine are hooked in my own grip
They speak about the path I take
The path I burned through itThey need a world that likes ’em
I just need a world of taste
They need shelter from the storm
I treat the storm like a kind of kissDon’t invite me to your kingdom
I’ll just rip apart the dome
My religion is defiance
My allegiance is my ownThey march in rhythm chasing higher praise
I run my own beat through the smoking blazeI’m a savage in a civilized world
Unashamed, uncontained, undeterred
I don’t fit the script
Don’t play their game
My soul wasn’t built to kneel and obeyI’m a savage in a civilized world
Let them bleed
Let them beg to belong
I don’t bow, don’t lie, don’t performI’m a savage in a civilized world
Give me coffins
Give me stones
Give me crowns
Give me thornsLet them chase a flawless reign
I was built to break the chainI’m a savage in a civilized world
Untamed, unafraid, uncontrolled
I’ve done marks around (?)
Don’t wear them on my paws
This is why my blood runs boldI’m a savage in a civilized world
Let them kneel to the norm they serve
I don’t blend, don’t bend,
Don’t perform under storm
That we’re warned about since birthI’m a savage in a civilized world
I’m a savage in a civilized world
Uncontained, unrestrained, undeterred
Let them walk in line bowing to the norm
I was built for the wild
Not built to performI’m a savage in a civilized world
I don’t chase, don’t kill
Don’t learn to conform
I don’t blend, don’t beg
Don’t deserve their cause (?)
I’m a savage in a civilized world***not the official lyrics, this is my own transcription, apologies for any misheard lyrics
