Elephant

It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room, room
Room now, it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room

Is a lie still a lie
If the words are never spoken?
Can a heart be truly broken
Without an act of violence?
Loopholes find a breach
Add it up, a figure of speech
You skirt around and tell me lies
That sound a lot like silence

[Chorus]
'Cause you never really had the nerve
Did you think I needed it
To be better than it really was
Did you think, did you think
Oh, that I couldn't really handle it
Did you think i needеd it
To be better than it rеally was
By biding 'bout the truth

So you turn your back
Like you can't even see it, see it
Tell me that I'm making it up
As you turn your back
Say it with me, believe it
Oh, oh, you better tell me the truth

It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room, room
Room now, it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room

Tongue-tied so you justify
Your lack of words by feeling hurt
Spin the bottle (back on me)
You push the throttle (crank the heat)
With wounded pride and righteous anger
When did you become a stranger?
Welcome home, my lyin' lover
You and I are not alone

[Chorus]
You never really had the nerve
Did you think I needed it
To be better than it really was
Did you think, did you think
Oh, that I couldn't really handle it
Did you think i needed it
To be better than it really was
By biding 'bout the truth

So you turn your back
Like you can't even see it, see it
Tell me that I'm making it up
As you turn your back
Say it with me, believe it
Oh, oh, you better tell me the truth

It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room, room
Room now, it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room

So you turn your back
Like you can't even see it, see it
Tell me that I'm making it up
As you turn your back
Say it with me, believe it, believe it
As you try to brush it under the rug
But i can see it clearly
There's an elephant in the room
Better tell me the truth, the truth
The truth, truth, truth
You better tell me the truth

It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room, room
Room now, it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room, room
Room now, it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room, room
Room now, it's in the room now
It's in the room now
It's in the room, room, room
