ELEPHANT - While She Sleeps

Everywhere I turn, there’s a life on the line

A cure for a price and fuck it, there’s an elephant in the room

Turn the page, another headline that you already knew

Paint the picture of a lie behind the truth

We’re on a flatline in a sorry state of affairs

Losing the will to live like we’re going nowhere

They put the frighteners on us but we all hide something

Enough is enough

I keep asking myself why us?

Enough is enough

I keep killing myself because

You said we’re only as strong as the fears we confront on the way

They won’t find me praying for a hero that hides like our tears from the pain

While the angels sing

«Everything will be okay»

Cross my fingers, point the blame

(I don’t believe a word they say)

«Everything will be okay»

Cross my fingers, point the blame

(I don’t believe a word they say)

I’d like to think that I don’t believe in anything

I’m just a heathen in disbelief

And I know, when I’m desperate I still call, don’t we all?

Enough is enough

We can’t see what’s in front of us

Enough is enough

Stop the world, I want to get off

You said we’re only as strong as the fears we confront on the way

They won’t find me praying for a hero that hides like our tears from the pain

You said we’re only as strong as the fears we confront on the way

They won’t find me praying for a hero that hides like our tears from the pain

While the angels sing

«Everything will be okay»

Cross my fingers, point the blame

(I don’t believe a word they say)

«Everything will be okay»

Cross my fingers, point the blame

(I don’t believe a word they say)

Everywhere I turn

There’s a life on the line, a cure for a price and fuck it

There’s an elephant in the room

Turn the page, another headline that you already knew

Clean the slate with the water we pollute

How many times do I have to disobey to be saved?

We’re already the cause but we call it a mistake, I believed it

Even if it’s just a figure of our imagination

The ground we walk is sacred but the grave we make is closer to hell

We all hide something

We all hide something

We all hide something
