White Elephant

It’s everywhere we go now
Bearing all its weight
Until it slows us both down
Monolith of the day
It’s everywhere

Look around, what sets this strange scene
Pieces of a world where we are nothing

Sleepwalk, find myself stuck in someone else’s dream
Interrupt and hear the cadence of the silent
Sound of everything

There was a warm home inside you
Where you left the shades drawn, so I wandered in

It’s everywhere I go now
Through my dreams tonight
I didn’t recognize you how
I remembered from life
It took me three whole years to
Look you in the eye
And even now I

Sleepwalk, watch myself from above
Always running to catch up
When alone I remember the road when I could like it
Calm before the time split
Mission Central Station
Drew your face from life
From life so I could frame it

Headlights pass by, drive me out of sight
To the dark of the side where the rain comes down
And it comes down

We go further still in time
(We have met before and we will meet again)
