We're Sick Like Animals








My summer so far... is going a teeny weeny bit okay. I can't do much of anything 'cause so I spend most of my time in my room doing things that I find to be pleasant, like... reading books :) but most of all, whipping my hair back and forth to the beat of the music I listen to.

I guess that you're guessing why I made this blog post. Like I've said, I whip my hair back and forth to music but this blog post is not about Willow Smith's song, Whip my Hair. It's actually about Neon Trees' amazing and awesome song, Animal. 



I first heard of it from the Glee episode, Sexy. It was sung by the Dalton Academy Warblers and their rendition of the song was so... HUBABA (I can't find the words to express my awe). I immediately got addicted which explains to everybody else why 99.09% of the music I hear everyday has the lyrics, " Oh, oh, I want some more. What are you waiting fo-o-or? Take a bite of my heart tonight!"

After I heard the song on Glee I sort of wanted to see the original version but I couldn't do that until early summer vacation. When I heard, saw, and felt it, I was more addicted to the song than ever. It's a really up beat song and it's kind of fun to dance to (don't tell my mom I dance in my room *wink* and in the shower *wink wink* and in her room too *wink wink wink*)

Animal was their hit single that got spot #13 in the Billboard Hot 100 and the #1 spot on the Alternative Rock Chart. 


It's also because of this song that I am now totally and absolutely addicted to the band Neon Trees and have come to love their other songs like 1983 and Sins of My Youth.

Since, in this blog post, I've included Glee's version of it and to also recognize the original version, I've included it, too.



Also, here are the lyrics to the song so you could sing to the song like I do. :)




Here we go again
I kinda wanna be more than friends
So take it easy on me
I'm afraid you're never satisfied.

Here we go again
We're sick like animals
We play pretend
You're just a cannibal

And I'm afraid I wont get out alive
No I won't sleep tonight

CHORUS:
Oh, oh
I want some more
Oh, oh
What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight

Here we are again
I feel the chemicals kickin' in
It's gettin' heavier
I wanna run and hide
I wanna run and hide

I do it every time
You're killin' me now
And I won't be denied by you
The animal inside of you

CHORUS:
Oh, oh
I want some more
Oh, oh
What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight



Hush, hush
The world is quiet
Hush, hush
We both can't fight it
It's us that made this mess
Why can't you understand?
Whoa, I won't sleep tonight

I wont sleep tonight

Here we go again
Here we go again
Here we go again

CHORUS
Oh, oh
I want some more
Oh, oh
What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight.

Oh, oh
I want some more
Oh, oh
What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight.

Oh, oh
I want some more
Oh, oh
What are you waitin' for?
Take a bite of my heart tonight.
Oh oh
I want some more
Oh oh
What are you waitin' for?
What are you waitin' for?
Say goodbye to my heart tonight.




Aaaaand, because I like the acoustic version, I added it here too :)

What is it with Alcohol?







Really, what is it???


I'm so mad at some drunk person right now. I just hate it. So much. It takes away the whole purpose of that person being here right now. Or maybe... it IS that person's purpose.


I just don't know. I really hate having to see a person that's here for some important reason but instead plants a seed of anger into your brain that grows in a very VERY short period of time which would end up in letting you show others how mad you are with that person when you really don't mean to bring them in the mess. They get others into places in their minds that they don't want to be in AND they won't remember doing that, AT ALL.  They only wake up in the morning with a useless stupid hangover. 


What I do understand is that they use up their money to buy all the trouble they'll be causing and to wake up with  a hangover. I also understand that it is fun to have a small drink once in a while (and by while, I mean a long time) but I don't understand why getting really drunk to the point of one being unaware that he is in an embarrassing situation very frequently is a good thing. 


I just don't know why.
