About This Track

‘Elephant’ by letlive. is a 2016 rock track from the album ‘If I’m the Devil…’. The lyrics are a confrontational, self-aware tirade, full of argument and defiance, that culminates in the image of “the elephant” filling the room and leaving no space to stand. The repeated speaker-and-reply structure sharpens the sense of being locked in a verbal standoff, with one voice insisting on its perspective and another answering back.

"Elephant" is a track by letlive., from the album If I’m the Devil…, released 9th June 2016. The track is 2:41 long. It's filed under Rock. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 5 articles about letlive..

Lyrics

Elephant

You are speaking Latin to all
I am yelling at Chinese walls
You see, truthfully I never really got the point in you
(You say)
You would think that someone would have already had to ended you
(You say)

Yeah, now the elephant has filled this whole room
And there's no room to stand
Now I'm barely breathing
But this whole room doesn't want me to

If you carry the torch for too long
There's no doubt you will get burnt when you fall
You see, you believe that everything they taught you is the truth
(You say)
And the beliefs will be the very thing that ended you
(You say)

Yeah, now the elephant has filled this whole room
And there's no room to stand
Now I'm barely breathing
But this whole room doesn't want me to

Yeah, now the elephant has filled this whole room
And there's no room to stand
And now I've got this feeling
That this whole room doesn't want me to

They never got it all so I've gotta say to you
(You say)
They never wanted it all 'til they take it all from you
(You say)

Yeah, now the elephant has filled this whole room
And there's no room to stand
Now I'm barely breathing
But this whole room doesn't want me to

Yeah, now the elephant has filled this whole room
And there's no room to stand
And now I've got this feeling
That this whole room doesn't want me to

    letlive.: "I really fucking like this record."

    ‘Speak Like You Talk’. ‘Fake History’. ‘The Blackest Beautiful’. letlive. have always asked questions with their music. With ‘If I’m The Devil…’, that exchange is far from over.
