Elephant Lyrics

Visualize a path of gold
Free from all your shame
A road to take when time is up
And you're tired of playing your game
Like saying the word that drops the stone
You've carried in your heart
Or like relief after breaking down
That pushed you to a fresh start

The elephant
The elephant
Chooses its place of death
It knows and goes exactly where
It wants to take its last breath
The elephant
The elephant
Leaves earth with grace and ease
My wish for you, my wholesome friend
Is that one day you too will feel that peace

People come and touch your life
And always leave a trace
Some words that ring inside your ear
Or anger in your face
We choose if to think they came to teach
By luck or just by train
One thing's for sure
You own your time
And they never have to come in vain

I seem to fill my journal up
Much faster than my days
As I change sweater years pass by
And put me in a haze
A picture says much more than words
And mine is going brown
I must find the manual of this
Carousel and slow it down
