"Elephant" lyrics

Look at this, it's all for you
The elephant is in the room
When I'm by myself, it's just the walls
I paint my nails and paint my eyes, try not to call

But look at this, it's all for you
We'll sit different sides, smile across the room
Can't make my words not carry weight
'Cause now I have a future, it could never be too late

The silences, it's all too much
It does feel different when you're close enough to touch
But I'm okay if you're okay
I could sit around and smile at you all day

The difference is for me and you
The elephant won't leave the room
Will it do you in? All I said and did
'Cause I can't imagine ever not being interested

So let's not talk, don't mention it
It won't go away, so let's just sit
Till I go home and we'll be okay
We'll be alone, but we'll be safe from words we say

By myself, I see you looking
I fall in your eyes and then they read me like a book
But I'm not there, but I can still see the way
You hold your hands, the way they'd hold me

By myself, it's just the walls
I paint my nails and paint my eyes, try not to call
But look at this, it's all for you
The elephant is in the room

Look at this

Look at this, it's all for you
The elephant is in the room
Look at this, it's all for you
The elephant is in the room
Look at this, it's all for you
The elephant is in the room
