Lyrics
Elephant
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Everywhere I turn, there's a life on the line
A cure for a price and fuck it, there's an elephant in the room
Turn the page, another headline that you already knew
Paint the picture of a lie behind the truth
We're on a flatline in a sorry state of affairs
Losing the will to live, like we're going nowhere
They put the frighteners on us but we all hide something
Enough is enough, I keep asking myself why us?
Enough is enough, I keep killing myself because
You said we're only as strong
As the fears we confront on the way
They won't find me praying for a hero
That hides like our tears from the pain
While the angels sing: Everything will be okay
Cross my fingers, point the blame
I don't believe a word they say
I'd like to think that I don't believe in anything
I'm just heathen in disbelief
And I know, when I'm desperate I still call, don't we all?
Enough is enough, we can't see what's in front of us
Enough is enough, stop the world, I want to get off
You said we're only as strong
As the fears we confront on the way
They won't find me praying for a hero
That hides like our tears from the pain
Everywhere I turn, there's a life on the line
A cure for a price and fuck it, there's an elephant in the room
Turn the page, another headline that you already knew
Clean the slate with the water we pollute
How many times do I have to disobey to be saved?
We're already the cause but we call it a mistake, I believed it
Even if it's just a figure of our imagination
The ground we walk is sacred
But the grave we make is closer to hell
We all hide something
