Towering over all other life
Watching through those large orbs which seemingly gaze into the inner parts of ones mind
Although protected with two ivory pillars, unequivocally terrified
All the while knowing that anything can go wrong

Upon the shoulders of the giant
One may experience that which is sought after
A position of safety albeit false and temporary
From a greater height the larger the plight
Into the depths of crushing darkness

Do you know the sorrow of a star that cannot return to the Heavens?
A pain so great - it may engulf the planet although bystanders are not aware
The Darkness shows it's ferocious hunger for the light
In that ephemeral second of eternity
The heart echoes the emptiness inside
Lub-Dub-Lub-Dub-Lub-Dub

For in the Heart of the Elephant
When the love falls
And all that is left is disaster
And all is lost
What is there to do but to look toward the Greater Beings
We yearn for understanding
Meaning from the suffering
