lyrics

I saw your eyes snowing fears that filled your plate
A cold-flat tiredness flooded your every gear like tons of oil
You spent summers in a jar
You fished old nails on tar
To build your spaceship
There must be some old stars to be born on

I heard you hunting your past like slugs in the grass
An angry music fell off from your hands and scared the garden
You’d love to be a secure land
You’d love to care about a friend
But they have taught you to wear this insane coat
to hush

There’s a cellar in your mind you fail to open
Your potential has expired
And if you’re tied to empty days and blank relationships
Please give me a call and I will come a-running
I’ll always be your Oliphaunt
Just sit on my back

Social workers steal your sun and build fake horizons
Dumb employers breathe your very own air
And if you feel you’re getting sick and thrown in the wind
Please give me a call and I will come a-running
I’ll always be your Oliphaunt
Just hang on to my neck

You’re a schooner in a pond where they go swimming
You’re the one they cannot turn into salt
But if it becomes too hard to handle, too bitter to drink
Please send me an e-mail and I will come a-running
I’ll always be your Oliphaunt
Just sleep while I drive
