Loosing the Elephant

from The Hole and I by Andrew Dempsen

/

lyrics

I’ve been trying to loose this elephant as long as I can remember, sweeping him under the carpet and into the corner, but he's filling up the room and I don’t have time to hide him before you come over, so we’ll just have to pretend that we don’t see him there.

I’m in over my head

I’ve got a couple bad habits. I watch them spin slowly on the carrousel, but I never claim my baggage, just turn my back and pretend I’m doing well, that I’m doing well.

I’m in over my head.

I’ve been drinking too much again. There, If I say it out loud am I less of a hypocrite, than when I didn’t drink at all cause I hated the taste of it.

[c] But I’m in over my head. Take me to the water. I’ll dive right in and sink to the bottom and come back up for air.
I want to be new again.

I let everything bad that’s ever happened, really get to me
I let everything bad that’s ever happened, really stick to me
and I’m in over my head.
