Thousands of pounds on my chest
Think I don't notice 'cause you've never said it out loud
The air all around us is thin
'Cause there's something bigger that's stealing our oxygen

And she won't quit
They say that love is blind
Well I guess I should close my eyes
While we danced around the elephant
We dance around the elephant

Like we don't see it
Like we can't feel it, feel it
We danced around the elephant
We dance around the elephant

Like we don't see it
Like we can't feel it, feel it
Her shadow is taking a toll
Even fire inside us has started to feel cold

Pull me close
They say that love can hurt
Well I'm not afraid to burn
While we danced around the elephant
We dance around the elephant

Like we don't see it
Like we can't feel it, feel it
We danced around the elephant
We dance around the elephant

Like we don't see it
Like we can't feel it, feel it
And I know that you know that this won't last
The weight of the questions that I won't ask
We danced around the elephant

The elephant
Let's drink in the moment
Don't break the glass
You know that I don't wanna ask
About the elephant

So we danced around the elephant
We dance around the elephant
Like we don't see it
Like we can't feel it, feel it
We danced around the elephant
We dance around the elephant

Like we don't see it
Like we can't feel it, feel it
And I know that you know that this won't last
The weight of the questions that I won't ask
We danced around the elephant
The elephant
The elephant
