lyrics

Oh my spotted elephant, who told you to take a shower in gasoline
You’re naked, gray, and wrinkled like the ones they’ve seen
I thought that I could fake it ’til they all believed
Fake it ’til they all believed

Oh my tangled insides, how’d you know to pull tight so I could hardly breathe
This feels just like it did when I was on my knees
And still trying to get a cold heart to believe
Get a cold heart to believe

Movie screen actor, take the glasses off this underconfident nerd
Reveal the glowing prom queen was inside her
That’s all is took to get ‘em all to realize
Get ‘em all to realize

Little screens hunched, let’s laugh off anybody trying to be true & kind
Thank God these algorithms say we should be fine
If we don’t even look each other in the eyes
Look each other in the eyes
Look each other in the eyes
Look each other in the eyes

Is it OK to keep dancing when I’m feeling phony
Just lucky to have the music and my feet below me
Is it OK to feel happy and still a little bit lonely
Just lucky to keep the bad things from killing me slowly
Every new normal will come and go
But the old surprises grow back the same
But that’s just the game, that’s just game
And all your searching will lead you home
So you find the tracks that lead far away
But that train goes teetering off the rails
