Look into my eyes: it's elephant thorns. In the middle of the room it's elephant thorns. Hole in your side, it's elephant thorns. You were warned, you were warned. Now the best laid plans are a tangled mess, and the hole in your logic meets the hole in your chest. Mark the missing time with a watch in your vest. You were warned, you were warned. Though you got it wrong on the first try you still refused to plan ahead. Winter's here. The well has run dry. It's blood for wine and bone for bread. Dance around the truth like the floor is aflame, with these termites burrowing into your name. Play for second place but this isn't a game. You were warned, you were warned. Elephant thorns planted into your lungs, and you scramble for the ladder but it's missing the rungs. Arsenic and water on the rocks. The song is written and sung.
