lyrics

-ELEPHANT GRAVEYARD-

I've been counting all my sins
I know I've made my fair share of mistakes
And when the final hunt begins
You know they're coming for my head
~
But I'm just looking for a place to lay my dusty bones
Because it seems they're aching more and more with every single day
~
It's a graveyard out there,
You better watch what you say.
~
I'm not the only one who feels it
Pressure in my heart when all around me burns
But even fire cannot conceal it
Ashes spread like footprints in the dirt
~
'Cos we're all just searching for a place to rest our filthy bones
But an arid heart won't give the moisture of a desert rain
When it's needed most of all in the depths of our marrow
We want it more each day
~
It's a graveyard out there,
You better watch what you say,
It's a wasteland out there,
You better lead your own way.
