Lyrics

Verse: In the middle of the room
There is an elephant
Nobody's saying a word
Like it's not even there
Where's the humble confidence
Obscured by apathy
Squinting eyes and straining ears
All too easily coaxed
After pathetic sessions
Bowing down in shame
Tasteless salt and fading light
How dare we claim to care

Chorus: We're over there
My friend get on your feet
But it's so dark and scary here
I need a light to see the street
And I know how I hurt your feelings that day
When I revealed all your horror
But that's the way it's got to be for life
It will only hurt a little while
For A Time

In the middle of the street
Verse 2: There is a chalk outline
Everyone whispering loudly
Like it never mattered
Where's the body gone to now
Random act of violence
Someone saw and someone heard
Now they stare at their shoes
No more good Samaritan
In a technical age
They loathe the inconvenience
Walk away unchanged
Who would care

(Repeat Chorus)
