[intro]

Elevator keys, you’ve got the elevator keys

Moving up to greater heights, your achievement’s guaranteed

Elevator keys, you’ve got the elevator keys

Moving up to greater heights, and I’ll keep begging (please)

 

[verse]
I'm constantly appointed the sore loser

Needing consolation cause my mind’s an abuser

Crying in my room cause they always choose her

Typing stupid sob stories into my computer

And then I think about all of my history

How I was never once guaranteed victory

Of course they knocked me off without a second thought

Your decisive winnings chosen so swiftly

 

[chorus]
And I’m so f*cking tired of the losing and the pain

Working hard for something till it all goes down the drain

I poured my blood into the life I so desperately need

But I keep slipping on the ground as I watch you succeed

Elevator keys, you’ve got the elevator keys

Moving up to greater heights, your achievement’s guaranteed

Elevator keys, you’ve got the elevator keys

Moving up to greater heights, and I’ll keep begging (please)

 

[verse]
It’s always retrospect, I could’ve done something much better

If I didn’t try so hard, I wouldn’t bend under the pressure

Everything I ever do just makes me so much lesser

Probably should’ve texted instead of writing you a letter

If had never wanted this, would that have made me win?

Everything you ever do still wears me paper-thin

I can see the broken lies lighting up inside your eyes

Nothing that you ever get is wanted deep within

 

[bridge]
Please, please, please, please, please, please, please

(losing and the pain)

Just leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave

(all goes down the drain)

Please, please, please, please, please, please, please

(so desperately need)

Just leave, leave, leave, leave, leave, leave

(as I watch you succeed)

 

[chorus]
And I’m so fucking tired of the losing and the pain

Working hard for something till it all goes down the drain

I poured my blood into the life I so desperately need

But I keep slipping on the ground as I watch you succeed

Elevator keys, you’ve got the elevator keys (keys)

Moving up to greater heights, your achievement’s guaranteed

Elevator keys, you’ve got the elevator keys (keys)

Moving up to greater heights, and I’ll keep begging (please)
