[00:00.54] Rachael Yamagata - Elephants
[00:03.91]
[00:06.60]
[00:14.26]
[00:16.84] If the elephants have past lives
[00:21.53] Yet are destined to always remember
[00:28.04] It's no wonder how they scream
[00:33.20] Like you and I, they must have some temper
[00:38.09]
[00:39.85] And I am dreaming of them in the plains
[00:45.77] Dirtying up their beds
[00:50.99] Watching for some sign of rain
[00:56.50] To cool their hot heads
[00:59.85]
[01:01.64] And how dare that you send me that card
[01:07.02] When I'm doing all that I can do
[01:13.17] You are forcing me to remember
[01:21.81] When all I want is to just forget you
[01:27.73]
[01:37.20] If the tiger shall protect her young
[01:42.74] Then, tell me, how did you slip by?
[01:47.12] Oh my instincts have failed me for once
[01:51.69] I must have somehow slept the whole night
[01:55.88]
[01:56.63] And I am dreaming of them with their kill
[02:02.07] Tearing it all apart
[02:06.64] Blood dripping from their lips
[02:11.25] Teeth sinking into heart
[02:14.76]
[02:16.09] And how dare that you say you will call
[02:21.25] When you know I need some peace of mind
[02:26.47] If you had to take sides with the animals
[02:34.03] Won't you do it with one who is kind?
[02:38.34]
[02:56.48] If the hawks in the trees need the dead
[03:00.87] If you're living you don't stand a chance
[03:05.65] For a time, though you share the same bed
[03:10.75] There are only two ends to this dance
[03:14.42]
[03:15.82] You can flee with your wounds just in time
[03:20.23] Or lie there as he feeds
[03:25.57] Watching yourself ripped to shreds
[03:30.49] Laughing as you bleed
[03:33.74]
[03:35.47] So, for those of you falling in love
[03:41.16] Keep it kind, keep it good, keep it right
[03:47.66] Throw yourself in the midst of danger
[03:56.23] But keep one eye open at night
[04:03.07]
