[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] |
