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