Elephant in the Room

from Road Trip by Amanda McCarthy

/

lyrics

It seems we have ourselves a little situation
Just a bit of an alienation
Conflict of interest, crash landing at best
Pushin' and pullin' and kickin' and screamin'
All in my head but you don't know the reason
It's like a bad drug boiling in my blood

Still contemplating excuses for waiting
The consequence it lays
On the words I know I'll never say

(Chorus)
So what do I do when there's an elephant in the room?
An unexpected rendezvous, seems to me I spoke too soon
Oh what do I say when it's rack-rack-racking upon my brain
I can't lie to hide the truth anymore
You're just not what I'm looking for

I never thought I'd have to be the one to tell you
Break it down after all that we've been through
Thought that you'd get it, don't sweat it, forget it
My face is turning red and now my tummy's turning green
I'm afraid I might say something I don't quite mean
There's no pretending for a happy ending

Still contemplating excuses for waiting
The consequence it lays
On the words I know I'll never say

(Chorus)

Still contemplating excuses for waiting
My sanity it lays
On the words I know I'll never say

(Chorus)
