Elephant Video (MV)

I heard they're nailing carpenters
To a wooden cross to bear
Up the street from where you live
And they are pointing fingers at
The ones that beg for cash
But give the bankers a free pass

Keeping all their demons in the closet
Sweeping away the dust under the carpet

Kinda reminds me of
Someone that I used to know
Who got obsessed with scapegoats
I guess it suited you perfectly
To put the blame on me
For everything that went wrong
Constantly demanding something better
Stuck with the idea of some kinda universal fairness

I guess it was you
You were the elephant in the room
Someone's about to
Someone's about to be leaving here soon

If your phone doesn't ring, it's me
If your phone doesn't ring
Then it's probably me

So this is how it ends
A battle of former friends
A stiff hug and a formal thanks
On a dark sad night
After a delayed flight It just felt so petty

But I hope that someday
You'll look back upon it
Realizing you were the one
Who blew it

That it was you
Who was the elephant in the room
Someone's about to
Someone's about to be leaving here soon

If your phone doesn't ring, it's me
If your phone doesn't ring
Then it's probably me
