From my upcoming EP – Phases Like The Moon
Elevator Music
In the made for TV movie of you and me
You would be played by James Spader
And I would be Ally Sheedy
And we’d meet in a hospital elevator
Where you had just learned that it was terminal
While I was checking in for shock therapy
And our eyes would meet as the doors slid closed
And then – Ah, and then – Oh
And then seven stories – down we go!
Don’t walk away
Don’t walk away
I still need you babe
In my own special way
I like elevator music
Do you like elevator music?
Elevator music
I like
Elevator Music
I hear you coughing in the darkness
And now I’m crawling through the debris
My hands are groping all the skin, blood and bone
They won’t be showing this on TV
I don’t know if my legs are working
And still I feel a little ache
I climb on top of you
Confess that I’ve been stalking you
And then Ah and then oh
And then time for a commercial break!
Don’t walk away
Don’t walk away
I still need you babe
In my own special way
I like elevator music
Do you like elevator music?
Elevator music
I like
Elevator Music
A little bit dark, and a whole lot of weird, this song was inspired by a long-term crush that ended badly. The song itself has its roots in a musical project than never got off the ground, but introduced me to the groove-based punk band, The Transplants. While it sounds nothing like The Transplants, their music gave me new ideas on how to approach writing.
This song has, in my mind, always needed a music video and so when I first recorded it I put one together. Eight months pregnant at the time and deep into making machinima with The Sims 2, Elevator Music first hit YouTube like this. Let me know which one you like better.
