Elephant Footprints

Honey it's just too bad
You know that it makes me glad
Down to the river, told me I'm a sinner, don't get sad
All things considered you must admit that I was had
I sank 'til the bottom rocks split now

I can see through the eyes of a brother
All things discovered through youth

Back to the city, ain't that a pity country boy
Happy little trip, I've never felt such fucking joy
Now that I'm just a toy
Never come to me for love or sympathy and don't be coy
No one ever gets closer than that

I can see through the eyes of a brother
All things discovered through youth
You could dig through the past with a shovel
Are you scared to uncover the truth?

Or why don't we just go back to hollow?
'Cause the void is swallowing the hope
Why don't we hide the tracks tomorrow?
Leaving elephant footprints in the snow

Make a lot of money, drowning in the honey, watch me crack
Will comply, buy the ticket take the ride, back to black
No matter how I try I always seem to end up coming back
Still, it makes me laugh disappearing down the railway tracks

Why don't we just go back to hollow?
'Cause the void is swallowing the hope
What if we hide the tracks tomorrow?
Leaving elephant footprints in the snow
