Elephants' graveyard resounding in my ears
a no man's land dream that will get me killed


first of the commitments I have made along the years
the last one to fulfill


Elephant's graveyard I am looking at the world
Through a glass darkly all my life


A little bit too late for me to try and break the spell
the well is running dry


Forget about this world
Your dreams will never fade
You're better off chasing dreams

than sitting in the shade

It's such a pretty little scene

Look at the water as it gleams in the sun
Take a run-up, hold your breath
Make a dash, don't regret

You're doing fine

Elephant's graveyard with noone by my side

Oh it is such a bittersweet view

Here amidst the wastage I am proving I was right

A bit wrong I guess too

Elephants' graveyard ruins in the south

An ivory tower On a pile of bones

Disappointing secret I should never have allowed

To drive me away from home

Forget about this world

Your dreams will never fade
You're better off chasing dreams
than sitting in the shade


It's such a pretty little scene
Look at the water as it gleams in the sun

Take a run-up, hold your breath
Make a dash, don't regret
You're doing fine


Elephants' graveyard hidden in the mud,
whisperings that surface every night

Chanting so intense it raises pressure in my blood,
I try to put up a fight...
