Escalators Lyrics by Matt Roome

Fifteen [EP]

2018

[Verse]

When I’m feeling like I'm levitating
Scared to death of an escalator
But an elevator ain't much better
Cause I feel like every time I step in
Gonna get the edge of my sweater
It's gonna trap me in this box
With no distractions
One way glass and I can't scream

Girl I get it if there's something that you
Can not comprehend

[Hook]
Cause that's just me baby
Ain't got much for you to see
Ain't it funny how some things could be different from the present
Past tense is heavy, look back and laugh now
But that's me ain't it?
Price goes up when talk is cheap
Sayin
"Legend has it
There's an old friend
And he acts the captain
Who we call the dragon"
And he's coming after me

[Verse]
What up world
What up girls
What up birds
How does it feel when you know that you've been chirping
Louder than beavers, the catchers who seek 'em
The laughter, the tweeters, the fever
And the speaker-man could ever be
You're not my enemy
But I’m not friendly

But yes I get it if there's something that you
Can not comprehend

[Hook]
Cause that's just me baby
Ain't got much for you to see
Ain't it funny how some things could be different from the present
Past tense is heavy, look back and laugh now
But that's me ain't it?
Price goes up when talk is cheap
Sayin
"Legend has it"
There's an old friend
And he acts the captain
Who we call the dragon"
And he's coming after me

Me baby
Ain't got much for you to see
Ain't it funny how some things could be different from the present
Past tense is heavy, look back and laugh now
But that's me ain't it?
Price goes up when talk is cheap
Sayin
"Legend has it, there's an old friend
And he acts the captain
Who we call the dragon"
And he's coming after me

[Outro]
Woah
Way-oh Way-oh
Woah
Way-oh Way-oh
Woah (Hey!)
Way-oh Way-oh
Way-oh (Hey!)
Way-oh Way-oh
Way
