Elephant Gun Songtext
von Pond

In the crystal tide when you sucked my thumb
And the telephone chimes before the sun
Trumpets loud as an elephant gun
Tell me am I still your number one?
And it hurts me now to write this song
Is anybody right and is anybody wrong?
I plugged the hole and staid the flow
If the cut ain′t clean then the shoot don't grow


Ageing, lonely, better off dead
The body don′t move but the heart don't rest
And as for the head, well it's still depressed
Did I hold you down? Did I try my best?

And you wouldn′t believe how low I′ve sunk
I didn't get burnt and I didn′t get drunk
Something in my heart just dried right up
Blood don't spill from a frozen cup
Now I don′t cry I just kind of leak
I should've just stayed in bed that week
Should′ve cut my arm or starved myself
I'm so sick of performing for someone else
