The Elephant Lyrics by Aaron Robinson

2008

[Verse 1]
I will fall asleep tonight
Against the will of the world
Because peace is not a gift
Nor a feeling, a feeling I deserve
Still it comes to me each night
Despite a war inside our heads
And a sea between our bodies
Cold and old inside this bed
[Chorus 1]
And you were the mother to my love
But I grew up a runaway
When I was drowning in the storm
You reached out and pulled me ashore
[Post-Chorus]
Oh no, oh no, oh no
[Verse 2]
And I will wake tomorrow
My arms dead by my side
And if I wrap them around you
I’ll wrap the truth in a lie
Cause we both know thе evil
The elеphant in our tomb
So let’s just be lions
For the cub in the other room
[Chorus 2]
And I was the killer of your heart
But you thought it best to stay
When I left you drowning in the rain
Though I’ll try, I’ll never know your pain
[Outro]
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
Oh no, oh no, oh no
