Courtney Jones - Elevator

[Verse 1]
I try to stand beside you, without ever looking
And I try to keep the rules that were never written
We have such a short time on this elevator
Close but not close enough

[Verse 2]
Anything that is said is unnecessary
We are always limited in our conversation
What if I don't turn around, I'm always pushing buttons
Close but not close enough
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Fighting anxious undertones
No better when we are alone
Talk to me, talk to me
(Talk to me, talk to me)

[Verse 3]
Even if isn't full, I have trouble breathing
Why is it uncomfortable when we know each other?
Always moving up or down, but never moving forward
Close but not close enough

[Verse 4]
Doesn't matter who was first, we are here together
And I don't know which is worse, the talking or the silence
Destination closing in, avoidance wins
You're close but not close enough

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Fighting anxious undertones
No better when we are alone

[Chorus]
We need a revolution, to throw caution to the wind
A simple resolution is let go of what we've been
We need a revolution, to throw caution to the wind
A simple resolution is let go of what we've been
[Outro]
I try to stand beside you, without ever looking
And I try to keep the rules that were never written
We have such a short time on this elevator
Close but not close enough
