Lyrics[edit | edit source]

[Dale: Thank you, this next song is called Anima Animus. This song is for Sherrie, because i love Sherrie and she loves me and well...
Audience: Me too, awww.
Dale: That's nice, that's nice.]

deep inner feeling
sitting inner space
that my anima or animus
bring me to this place
living in illusions
looking for a fate
feeling ancient animals
i can't regurgitate

away
away
too much to give away

being in a focus
feeling out of place
should i think of you and what you do is mine
adjusting karmic place
stutter towards acceptance
stutter to your face
knowing what compels me
through my life that i create

away
away
there's too much to give away

being in a focus
and seeming out of place
should i think of you and what you do is mine
adjusted karmic place
stuttered towards acceptance
stuttered to your face
knowing what compels me
through my life that i create

away
away
there's too much to give away
away
away
there's too much to give away
