Elephant in the Room

I held my tongue on the joy ride

And they all laughed with arms out wide

Oh-no

Oh-no

I held his hand, but felt alone

Don't wanna' be here, or at home

Oh-no

Oh-no

Darlin', don't tell me, I'm miles deep

Starin' at a blank screen, chasing an ideal dream

And he's fighting for things that don't exist

And I'm trying not to think of all the things that I missed

And I try to figure it out

But they all talk so quick

And they all stare so loud

And the elephant in my room remembers

How I used to go and lose my temper

Over little changes in all the faces

You make when you try to be smart

So I will play my part

I spent too long, on what he said

Let myself fall back in a sofa bed

Oh-no

Oh-no

I paid my debts with these old sights

The mirror's sick of looking at my eyes

Oh-no

Darlin', don't tell me, I'm miles deep

Starin' at a blank screen, chasing an ideal dream

And he's fighting for things that don't exist

And I'm trying not to think of all the things that I missed

And I, I'm always trying to be cool

But I just wanna' tell you the truth

That I, yeah, I hope we both pull through

'Cause I don't think there's much

Of a choice that I can do

And the elephant in my room remembers

How I used to go and lose my temper

Over little changes, in all the faces

You make, when you're trying to be smart

So I will play my part
