They arrived like giants
Stampeding over my fragile dreams
Like wild elephants on a glass floor.
I wanted to run
But I stayed.
I wanted to cry
But I dried up my well
And hid my wishes away.
They're all the change I have in me.
This broken heart's gone broke
But has the hope of a mouse who knows
There's cheese at the end of the maze
Just doesn't know a better way.
They arrived like giants
And the moon was oblong
I felt so small while you felt so strong
You said there's no reason to be depressed,
But babe I'm afraid.
I don't think those elephants
Will ever rest.
