Elephant

You follow me everywhere I go
Whether I move slow or very fast
I picture you sitting on my back
Whether you're weighed down
Or feeling light

Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah

Your shoves unexpected
Your elbows sharp
Why do you contend?
Can you be still?

You take and you take
All that's left of me
'Til my air depletes
And I cannot breathe

Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah

You try to resist me
You cannot win
I do not contend
Oh, won't you come and be still?

Your striving is pointless
Your ego high
Come connect with me (come connect with me)
I'll show you how to be free

Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah

And I cannot pretend
That you are apart from me
You are a part of me
And if you will not go
Then will you teach me sight?
In the moment to see the light

You are my friend
And you are my foe
This world can hold
Beauty and pain
