Hello Mind - Elephant

We were just porcelain horses on loop
Round the taxidermy of a god in a suit
A merry-go-round on the event horizon
Don't speak of the elephant corpse in the room
The gravity's stretching my walls and the truth
And the memories of everything I thought I knew
Everything reminds me of them
Everything reminds me of what I've been through

In paper mache, my heart splits in two
Every day was like happy birthday to you
The sweetness cascades to the floor
And I'm blamed for the mess, shown the door
It's a fruitless pursuit to replay this movie of thoughts
And regrets that that elephant never forgets
But everything reminds me of them
Everything reminds me of what I've been through

I am sleepwalking through most of my days
The groupthink machine is in an infinite maze
This elephant weighs on my back and the facts
Are a tattoo I cannot redact or erase
At the root of it, truth of it, we're all confused
It's a narrative that I know I ought to lose
But everything reminds me of them
Everything reminds me of what I've been through
