Elephant Gun Pond

[Verse 1: Nick Allbrook]
In the crystal tide when you sucked my thumb
And the telephone chimes before the sun
Trumpet loud as an elephant gun
Tell me, am I still your number one?
And it hurts me now to write this song
Oh, is anybody right and is anybody wrong?
I plugged the hole and staid the flow
If the cut ain't clean then the shoot don't grow

[Chorus: Nick Allbrook & Jay Watson]
Aging, lonely, better off dead
The body don't move
But the heart don't rest
And as for the head
Well, it's still depressed
Did I hold you down?
Did I try my best?

[Verse 2: Nick Allbrook]
And you wouldn't believe how low I've sunk
I didn't get burnt and I didn't get drunk
Something in my heart just dried right up
Blood don't spill from a frozen cup
Now I don't cry, I just kind of leak
I should've just stayed in bed that week
Should've just cut my arm or starved myself
I'm so sick of performing for someone else
