How do you eat an elephant?
Ignore it.
Push down all the hurt inside
It will go away in a matter of time.
Nobody will get it, nobody will care
Passed On
Lost legends tremor in the graphite lake,
Thunder deep rumble, resonance of quake;
Perpetual waves grumble in refrain
Dull detonation pulse across the plain.
Sedate and synchronous in wrinkled line
There is an elephant in my room no lie
He is hanging on the ceiling
I just look em in the eye and start screaming
Then he says be silent before i get violent
How the fuck you think i feel you don't see me smiling
If I was an elephant i would be as happy as I could be
I would be so happy I would even climb a tree
Other elephants would stop and look at me
Saying “look at that silly ol’ elephant up in a tree”
There's an Elephant in the room
It's hard to move around, it's hard to leave alone.
I try to move past it, but I cant
It will always be there, taunting me, telling me, I'm not good enough.
There once was a homecoming game
Whose affiliation I wish to declaim
It made us all squirm
for it starred a pachyderm.
And my high school's rep became lame.
