Elbows on the table is a journey of realization. It's about letting go of old narrative and expectation, and finding our own path - changing the rhythm and making it new. A large part of this is consistently recognizing and being grateful for what we have in life, focusing less on ambition, and more on developing our own inner peace.
lyrics
Made the most of a time that was hard to find
Had more life than a warning sign
And did I begin to find
More than a hoax
Got me the most
With the garden hose
In the wake of the me that wasn't blind
Had a knack for the warning signs
But a frown a mile wide
I used to choke
Got me the most
With the book I wrote
With the book I wrote
We can change the rhythm
We can make it new
Melody in revelry
It's time we see it through
Elbows on the table
Elbows on the table
Ohhhhhh
Now I stand in the chorus line
Looking at a warning sign
Think I've done it a thousand times
And it's a joke
Got me the most
Once the stories told
Have a life that's hard to find
I hold the warning sign
It was really a chance to find
That it's my own
Got me the most
Then I awoke
Then I awoke
We can change the rhythm
We can make it new
Melody in revelry
It's time we see it through
Elbows on the table
Elbows on the table
Ohhhhhh
We can change the rhythm
We can make it new
Melody in revelry
It's time we see it through
Elbows on the table
Elbows on the table
Ohhhhhh
Elbows on the table
