lyrics

The Elephant Man

Remember, on the day he was born
The world was shocked when they saw him
The baby’s head was so deformed
So pitiful, broken and sad

Then time went by, years of no grace
The child grew, and wise he became
Son of man with an elephant face
Prepares this world for the newest reign

Won’t you tell me what happens in this place?
Help to erase these illusions and lead me through this nightmare
I stand alone at the door and I can’t see past all this darkness
Oh, wise monster please tell me, I am waiting for your answers

“I want you to know the things I can tell,” says the Elephant Man
“I have so much to show, ‘tween Heaven and Hell, is where you’ll find me”
“The place you should go, this place where I dwell, will explain everything”
“But this space is unknown, this timeless domain,” said the Elephant Man

His words were over, yet here I stand
Nothing could I comprehend
Then over the mountain, where we still were
A blinding rift appeared from nowhere

And then I asked, “What the hell is this?”
His ugly face formed a smile, I guess
I felt peaceful and went to sleep
A newly awakened being
