Lyric discussion by cara_donna 

For me, this is about being young and discontent, growing old and being discontent. Throughout life you take down your "elephants" one by one (to paraphrase). For me, this song is heavy with disillusionment and disenchantment with friendships, relationships and dreams.

Is there something better out there if you abandon what people expect from you? Here's to finding what that better something is.

@cara_donna i think this is one of the best answers. I think the music also talks about suicide: take the big king down; all that is left is all that I hide... Great song anyway
