elephants

• elephants teeth sinking into heart albümünün açılış parçası, klibi dünyanın en güzel mekanlarından birinde çekilmiş ya da dünyanın en güzel mekanlarından biri oluşturulmuş klip için. öyle hisli, öyle dokunaklı ve öyle kırılgan ki... gözyaşlarından bile sakınmak istiyorsunuz dinlerken. rachael yamagata'nın yapacağını yaptığı şarkıdır elephant. ^*
  sözleri de şöyle:
  
  if the elephants have past lives yet all destined to always remember
  it's no wonder how they scream
  like you and i they must have some temper
  
  and i am dreaming of them on the planes
  dirtying up their beds
  watching for some sign of rain to cool their hot heads
  
  and how dare that you send me that card when i am doing all that i can do
  you are forcing me to remember when all i want is to just forget you
  
  if the tiger shall protect her young then tell me how did you slip by
  all my instincts have failed me for once
  i must have somehow slept the whole night
  
  and i am dreaming of them with their kill
  tearing it all apart
  blood dripping from their lips and teeth sinking into heart
  
  and how dare that you say you'll call
  when you know i need some peace of mind
  if you have to take sides with the animals
  won't you do it with one who is kind
  
  and if the hawks in the trees need the dead
  if you're living you don't stand a chance
  for a time though you share the same bed
  there are only two ends to this dance
  
  you can flee with your wounds just in time or lie there as he feeds
  watching yourself ripped to shreds and laughing as you bleed
  
  so for those of you falling in love keep it kind
  keep it good
  keep it right
  throw yourself in the midst of danger but keep one eye open at night
