I held my tongue on the joy ride And they all laughed with arms out wide Oh no Oh no
I held his hand but felt alone Don't wanna be here or at home Oh no Oh no
Darlin', don't tell me I'm miles deep Starin' at a blank screen, chasing an ideal dream And he's fighting for things that don't exist And I'm trying not to think of all the things that I missed And I try to figure it out But they all talk so quick And they all stare so loud
And the elephant in my room remembers How I used to go and lose my temper Over little changes in all the faces You makе when you try to be smart So I will play my part
I spent too long on what hе said Let myself fall back in a sofa bed Oh no Oh no
I paid my debts with these old sights The mirror's sick of looking at my eyes Oh no
Darlin', don't tell me I'm miles deep Starin' at a blank screen, chasing an ideal dream And he's fighting for things that don't exist And I'm trying not to think of all the things that I missed And I, I'm always trying to be cool But I just wanna tell you the truth That I, yeah, hope we both pull through 'Cause I don't think there's much Of a choice that I can do
And the elephant in my room remembers How I used to go and lose my temper Over little changes in all the faces You make when you try to be smart So I will play my part
