Eating Styes From Elephants’ Eyes

James Mercer

[Verse 1]
They want trash
They want you batting a lash
They'll eat styes from elephants' eyes
They're in touch
With their inner crutch
They won't stab but they'll grab
And that's just like the other

[Verse 2]
We get nerves
And we drown them in booze
We take lies from elephants' eyes
We're in bed
With a car eating lead
It won't stop if you shop
With the lovers of bloodshed

[Chorus]
I went to school, I saw slides
Of where I'm meant to be
Where I'm meant to be
Where I'm meant to be

[Verse 3]
We read time
Like a kid eating limes
We're in town when bees are let out
We get laughs
Through an osmotic patch
We're attached to the past
Cause our future's a bleak one

[Chorus]
I went to school, I saw slides
Of where I'm meant to be
I'm meant to be
I'm meant to be
I'm meant to be
I'm meant to be
I'm meant to be
I'm meant to be
