Elevator to Nowhere - TaPe

[Verse 1] Black suitcase by the door If I leave, I lose what we were before Old muscle car hearts All noise, no drive Quarter-mile love, but we never crossed that line 2 AM, red planet head Waiting on your name to light my screen again Whole building hums Like it knows us now We keep going up and down, up and down [Pre-Chorus] Same ride, same lie Doors open, nothing on the other side [Chorus] Elevator to nowhere Going up, going down Going up, going down Every time I try to step off You pull me back around Elevator to nowhere Going up, going down Going up, going down Doors open to the same old hurt And I still stick around [Verse 2] You still send smoke signals Through a dead phone screen Every prayer candle burns into another drink Every time you did me dirty I stayed under the shower Trying to wash you off me Hour after hour I wanted clean love Not a soap opera But one touch from you turns the whole room tropical You know I want you I know you want me too But you hide in your silence Like you got nothing to lose [Pre-Chorus] Then you write, “What changed?” Like you don’t know who left me in the rain [Chorus] Elevator to nowhere Going up, going down Going up, going down Every time I try to step off You pull me back around Elevator to nowhere Going up, going down Going up, going down Doors open to the same old hurt And I still stick around [Bridge] I’ve been so stuck My wheels ain’t been spinning I’ve been so stuck My wheels ain’t been spinning No floor, no light Just your ghost in the mirror No floor, no light Just another fake way out [Final Chorus] Elevator to nowhere Going up, going down Going up, going down Every time I try to step off You pull me back around Elevator to nowhere Going up, going down Going up, going down Doors open to the same old hurt And I still stick around
