lyrics

Light like an Elephant

Stony ocean, flowing mountain,
Sunny darkness, bright shining pit.
Falling upwards, light like an elephant,
Flying backwards to see the future’s confident.

And all we do is too confused
It’s hard to understand the whole thing.

But maybe if I try, I’ll figure it out some time.
Maybe not all of it - just a little bit.
Yes maybe if I try, I’ll figure it out some time.
As far as I can see – what’s more’s the things I feel.

Many words, endless infinity,
Telling tales, built up a history.
Future’s open – past will be never closed.
Lighten up all, all of those big black holes.

And all we do is too excessive
It’s hard to understand the small things.

But maybe if I try, I’ll figure it out some time.
Maybe not all of it - just a little bit.
Yes maybe if I try, I’ll figure it out some time.
As far as I can see – what’s more’s the things I feel.


And they weigh
Thousand little teardrops each a word.
Lost alone combined they are the world.
Let it rain for a while
Fill up the river and find.
Monsters screaming and heart relieved at the same time.
Emotions whirling unknotted thoughts free your mind.
Wuthering storm in your head,
Dragging the river and let you see
What you are
More than a little less of all
And the ocean calms down right now.

Steady heartbeat, strength of slowness,
Make me happy, let me smile
Saturate all the colors, place black and white in between
That I always remember
That all belongs together
And that is what I see
But it’s so much more
I can feel
