some days I won’t be crushed until sunrise
some days I won’t be crushed until noon
but somehow I always end up getting trampled
by the elephant in the room
poor weeping willow
torn out by the roots
I’m making no excuse
but how can I relax knowing you’re out there
off in the meadow
vicious violent brute
tortured by the truth
how can I relax knowing you’re out there
some days ill fight him off with a shotgun
some days I’ll fight him off with a broom
but mostly I just avoid making eye contact
with the elephant in the room
he’s in my head
he’s stomping on the bed
he’s wishing I was dead
he’s in my head
how can I relax knowing you’re out there
