Elephants Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Trapped inside this state of mind and I can't seem to find reality
Getting lost inside my favorite dream, just you and me and ecstasy
Wipe snowflakes from my nose and tell me I'm your pretty pretty girl
Pretty pretty girl
Getting lost inside my favorite dream, just you and me and ecstasy
Wipe snowflakes from my nose and tell me I'm your pretty pretty girl
Don't stop pulling me back in, playing with you is playing with poison
You wipe the tears from my eyes, say I love you then later say fuck you
Pretty pretty girl
With you, with you, with you




Did that sound good
Fuck yeah
