Elephant

Are you sure you want to ignore all the evidence?
That I am in fact flawed and far from heaven sent
Sure, you left me sore after our severance
It was then I finally saw all your benevolence
You walked in the door so sure, so elegant
You walked in the room and just ignored the elephant
You looked at the sky and asked me where the weather went
I guess it went away with all our innocence
Are you sure you want to endure all my negligence?
And listen to me overstate my intelligence
I know I exaggerate my excellence
Well, I may be wrong but I fail to see the relevance
We built a home, we made our little settlement
A place of our own where we were the only residents
And I have been known to mix up my own medicine
Just to forget the future, past and the present tense

Still Swimming

You say you don't recognise me
You say I look like a ghost
You say you don't recognise me
You say I look unfamiliar
You say you miss me the most
You say you don't recognise me
We took a couple weeks off
A few days that we don't speak of
You say you don't like me much
When I get a little too stoned
You say you don't recognise me
You say you don't want to party
You'd rather just stay at home
You say you don't recognise me
We took a couple weeks off
A few days that we don't speak of
Well, here's to love
And here's to the fears you held for years while thinking of
Whether you'd ever learn to be quite good enough
And here's to the tears you cried, my dear, when things got rough
And here's to the sorry song that still swims in your blood
You say you don't recognise me
You say I look like a ghost
You say you don't recognise me
You say I look unfamiliar
You say you miss me the most
You say you don't recognise me

If I Wasn't

Think of all the things I could be
If I wasn't me
If I wasn't
If only
I wasn't me
Think of all the things you could do
If you weren't you
If I wasn't
If only
If you weren't you
I would start the day before three
If I wasn't me
If I wasn't
If only
I wasn't me
I'd turn off the TV
Think of all the books that I'd read
Thoroughly, at speed
If I wasn't
If only
I wasn't me
The life I would lead
I'd plant a few seeds
Have a beautiful garden
I'd always say 'please'
I wouldn't say 'what', I'd say 'pardon'
I'd send money and clothes I don't need overseas to the starving
And I'd break every bone in body to assure you're laughing
Are you laughing?
Think of all the things that I'd make
If I weren't a fake
If I wasn't
If only
I weren't a fake
Think of all the hands that I'd shake
The friendships I'd make
If I wasn't
If only
I weren't a fake
Think of all the things I could be
Content and happy
If I wasn't
If only
I wasn't me
If I could be free
Think of all the places I'd see
The faces I'd meet
If I wasn't
If only
I wasn't me
The life I would lead
I'd always succeed
Have my own big apartment
And I wouldn't need improvement in any department
I'd smoke less weed, indeed, I'd regret ever starting
And I'd break every bone in my body to assure you're laughing
Are you laughing?
Think of all things that I'd miss
The taste of your kiss
If I wasn't
If I gave up all of this
Think of everything I couldn't do
If you weren't you
If I wasn't who you had wanted to choose
