Wounded Animal Lyrics

Cover art for Wounded Animal lyrics by Mary Lambert

This song is beautiful, heartbreaking and so underrated. Mary Lambert is an amazing performer, enough people don't appreciate it. Sometimes, with a lot of songs, you can't exactly tell what it's about or how the singer is supposed to feel, because it's so subtle. But Mary Lambert is so direct and upfront about her feelings, which I love, because it makes her performance so much more believable and real. And that's not an easy thing to do, to reveal how vulnerable you are. Literally, each "I'm sorry" she sings doesn't sound like just a mere repetition of words, she pours her heart into each one, to the point where someone listening to the song can feel exactly what she felt. You can tell that she really IS sorry.
