Lyric

the angelus

elephant

Standing at the end of an intersection that does not intersect, dancing with daydreams and selfish love

Meaningless anger

Meaningless sadness

Meaningless promises

Only a deeply engraved curse connects us

Unchanging world and unchanging life

I was admiring you standing with a carefree smile on the tip of a fern leaf that had grown large

I stop looking back and continue down the narrow alleyway

It took me a while to realize that the heat on my cheeks was tears

We had made so many mistakes that we couldn't help anyone

I desperately walked forward so as not to be left behind in the days that flowed by

Blood begins to flow through my numb fingertips

Even if I reach out my hand that has regained its sensation

I can't reach you, who's still lying face down in the dark

And so…

I was left behind with nothing

Slowly melting away in the revolving seasons

The band Elephant will release their new single 'GRIEF FILMS' digitally through divergent record.
This marks their first new release since their 3rd album 'vermilion' in March 2020.

In an era where modern technologies and environments have been refined, the band embarked on a creative journey, asking, 'How can we capture and convey the raw essence of our sound more vividly?'
This single was crafted through extensive experimentation and introspection.

By reimagining the essence of 'alternative' from the ground up, the tracks deliver a soundscape that is distinct and unparalleled.

A passionate work that expresses the unredeemable emotions and pain for everyone, laid bare through performances both hauntingly beautiful and violently raw.
