This is a little insight from Vanessa about what “Animal” means to her:

“The song is about stoicism. The idea of knowing we cannot control external forces; she is being hunted and she accepts the reality of what is happening. The acceptance allows her to truly see the animal. Does she even identify with this creature? Every human has an animal within them. Are you hunting? Are you being hunted? Who is the animal?”

Lyrics
Why don’t you come and get it
Animal
Why don’t you come and get it
Animal

Universe within me
Dancing to a heart beat
Give it up

Gonna get my head right
Visions in the moonlight
Give it up

Never seen such beauty
Hold me like Debussy
Flowing like a river
Wilder and within her
Carrion or hunter
Looking for a Mother
Give it up

I am here
You can’t see me
Animal
Animal

Energies within in me
Moving to a heart beat
Give it up

Waiting for the new light
Feel it like a sharp knife
Give it up

Never seen such beauty
Hold me like Debussy
Flowing like a river
Wilder and within her
Carrion or hunter
Looking for a lover
Give it up

I am here
You are with me

And when you're starving on the inside
Nobody can tell
But when you start to feel the fault line
In the night
I know her well
In the night
