McKenna Malloy - Elephant

You were my go-to, like Bonnie and Clyde
We burned down the town, take off and hide
Stealing the show at the neighborhood bar
Losing our dignity dancing on cars

Ahhhh, you said we're better together
Ahhhh, like two birds of a feather

It never felt like you wanted to fix it
Even though you knew you could
Don't tell me that you don't see it
Your pretending is really no good

Ahhhh, the walls are burning down and the celling's on the ground
Ahhhh, it's too much weight, we were bound to break
Ahhhh, I can hear the sound of the floor falling out
Ahhhh, there's cracks in the wood from where the elephant stood

Were we a reason, a season, a lifetime?
I'll never know 'cause you're not mine
One second we're riding off in sunsets
I didn't know we were done yet

Ahhh ahhh i picked up the phone but you cut off the line
Ahhh ahhhh there's no gold left and I've been the ones digging mines

It never felt like you wanted to fix it
Even though you knew you could
Don't tell me that you don't see it
Your pretending is really no good

Ahhhh, the walls are burning down and the celling's on the ground
Ahhhh, it's too much weight, we were bound to break
Ahhhh, I can hear the sound of the floor falling out
Ahhhh, there's cracks in the wood from where the elephant stood
From where the elephant stood
From where the elephant stood
From where the elephant stood

Now I'm standing alone in the room
We both know your cease fire was too soon
'Cause the walls are burning down
And the floor keeps falling out
From where the elephant stood
Would you take it back if you could
Maybe I don't wanna know
And true colors always let themselves show

Ahhhh, the walls are burning down and the celling's on the ground
Ahhhh, it's too much weight, we were bound to break
Ahhhh, I can hear the sound of the floor falling out
Ahhhh, there's cracks in the wood from where the elephant stood
From where the elephant stood
From where the elephant stood
From where the elephant stood

In the room, in the room, in the room, ahhhh
In the room, in the room, in the room, ahhhh

Don't tell me you were cautious
Don't tell me you were hesitant
In the room, in the room, in the room
'Bout the elephant
In the room, in the room, in the room, ahhhh
In the room, in the room, in the room, ahhhh

You were my go-to, like Bonnie and Clyde
