Well I heard they
Nailed a carpenter
To a wooden cross to bear
Up the street from where you live
And they are pointing fingers at
The ones that beg for cash
But give the bankers a free pass
Keeping all their demons in the closet
Sweepin' away the dust under the carpet
Kinda remind me of
Someone that I used to know
Who got obsessed with scapegoats
Suited you perfectly
To put the blame on me
For everything that went wrong
Constantly demanding something better
Stuck with the idea of some kinda universal fairness
I guess it was you
You were the elephant in the room
Someones about to
Someones about to be leaving here soon
Yeah, yeah
If your phone doesn't ring, it's me
Yeah, yeah
If your phone doesn't ring, then it's probably me
So this is how it ends
The battle of former friends
A stiff hug and a formal thanks
On a dark, sad night
After a delayed flight
It just felt so petty
But I hope that someday
You'll look back upon it
Realizing you were the one who blew it
That it was you
Who was the elephant in the room
Someones about to
Someones about to be leaving here soon
Yeah, yeah
If your phone doesn't ring, it's me
Yeah, yeah
If your phone doesn't ring, then it's probably me
