Lyrics

Elevator

In the elevator I pick my floor And if I want to battle I pick my war Hold tight Hold on Hold tight I was blind for a time Now I find The choice is mine And I get seasick On dry land And I hear voices Saying "Do what you can" Hold tight Hold on Oh I was blind for a time Now I find That the choice is mine Hold tight Hold on Oh I was blind for a time Now I find That the choice is mine The choice is mine Oh, oh, oh, oh The choice is mine Oh, oh, oh, yeah
