Free the Animal Lyrics
I love you so
Wanna throw you from the roof
The pressure builds
Wanna put my hands through you
I'll squeeze you tight until you take your last breath
Loving you to death, loving you to death
The pressure's rising I won't make it through tonight
This love immortal is an assassin's delight
Just blow me up or run me down or cut my throat
And when it's time for you to die
Detonate me
Shoot me like a cannon ball
Granulate me
Kill me like an animal
Decapitate me
Hit me like a baseball
Emancipate me
Free the animal, free the animal
Oh
Oh
Free the animal
Oh
Free the animal, free the animal
I love you so I'm putting you in quicksand
You take your chances when you kiss the hitman
The animal's inside of this infinite jest
Loving you to death, loving you to death
The pressure's rising I won't make it through tonight
This love immortal is an assassin's delight
Just blow me up or run me down or cut my throat
And when it's time for you to die
Detonate me
Shoot me like a cannon ball
Granulate me
Kill me like an animal
Decapitate me
Hit me like a baseball
Emancipate me
Free the animal, free the animal
Granulate me
Shoot me like a cannon ball
Granulate me
Kill me like an animal
Decapitate me
Hit me like a baseball
Emancipate me
Free the animal, free the animal
Murder me, ruin me, look what you do to me
Beautiful pain baby, pour acid rain on me
Kill me with your loving
Kill me with your loving
I'll slice you and dice you, like sugar and spice
I'll do all that you want me to on the beast in you
I'll kill you with my with my loving
I'll kill you with my loving
Murder me, ruin me, look what you do to me
Beautiful pain baby, pour acid rain on me
Kill me with your loving
Kill me with your loving
I'll slice you and dice you, like sugar and spice
I'll do all that you want me to on the beast in you
I'll kill you with my with my loving
I'll kill you with my loving
Detonate me
Shoot me like a cannon ball
Granulate me
Kill me like an animal
Decapitate me
Hit me like a baseball
Emancipate me
Free the animal, free the animal
Granulate me
Shoot me like a cannon ball
Evaporate me
Kill me like an animal
Decapitate me
Hit me like a baseball
Emancipate me
Free the animal, free the animal
Oh

Free the animal, free the animal

I wonder if this related to the "cute aggression" phenomenon, where we suddenly feel a rush of apparent aggressiveness when we see something really cute, or someone that we like... reflected on comments as "I wanna hug you to death" or "it's so cute I want to squeeze it", explained here: http://thoughtcatalog.com/gaby-dunn/2013/01/science-explains-why-we-want-to-squeeze-cute-things-to-death/
Obsessive love can be destructive--for both the object and the person whose life has become consumed with love. Falling in love with someone can often feel like the death of the self... when you put someone else's happiness and wants before your own, especially. If we are loved in return our feelings and actions are validated, and in that validation we can often learn to love ourselves too.
But when we love someone who doesn't return it... it can turn into an obsession. She wants to kill the object of her love and wants to be killed by them in return. It's an unhealthy relationship and she knows it, but it's not stopping her from throwing herself into it without concern for her own survival.
