The Shapes Between Us Turn To Animals Lyrics - Hitchcock Robyn

Desires muck and algae were the shadows on the wall 

glasses shatter ornaments on to the ground they fall 

our hair like anemone's that wave beneath the seas 

our fingers are like the fingers of baboons up in the trees 

and the shapes between us turn into animals 

the shapes between us 

The lion is your anger as it smashes up the chair 

the zebra is my answers as your pounding up the stairs 

that's black and white and yes and no and can't make up it's mind 

when you gonna see that love is dumb as well as blind 

oh the shapes between us turn into animals 

the shapes between us 

when the night is over and the dawn comes shining through 

everything is smashed to bits including me and you 

the animals are snoring open-mouthed inside the cage 

waiting for the wine to turn and ache into a rage 

'cause the shapes between us turn into animals 

the shapes between us
