Elephant Lyrics

Something wrong,

Elephant?

A story about the broken hearts

The people that were left behind

We are fans

Of their dance

They take up such a serious stance

I've never seen such elegance

You wouldn't even realise

Their taking up a lance

To their lives

D'you even want me to be yours?

That is a line you can't rehearse

We always wanted to be first

But only on the weekend

Elephant, you are gone

I miss you

Don't tell me you don't

Self-destructing memories

Half-truths and apologies

Remind me who I used to be

Is that too much to ask?

Do I come off too crass?

I should be touching grass

But alas

Stupid melodies

"Do do do do do"

What's that supposed mean?

Does that say something about me?

Well, it will

D'you even want me to be yours?

That is a line I can't rehearse

We always wanted to be first

But only on the weekend

Elephant, you were lying

Through your eyes

You tell me you don't

Tell me how you know

I never wanted to be him

The man I never knew, but then

People told me to withheld

Stop making excuses for yourself

All the broken hearts

We knew it would hurt

They told us from the start

Elephant
