Never Make a Show
Style: Doo wop

[Verse 1]
Two plates pressed heavy, side by side
something soft still keeps them from the fight
you hold the space between us safe
no cracks, no chips, no need to hide

[Pre-chorus]
You never raise your voice to prove it
quiet as a held breath, steady and true
so when the room goes still

[Chorus]
Elliot, you're the calm I lean on
steady as the tide going out slow
Elliot, easy in the quiet
that's the love I want to know

[Verse 2]
You cushion every small collision
soft where the whole world turns to stone
other hands might let it shatter
you just hold it, hold your own

[Bridge]
No riot, no rush, no need to try it
just you, steady, sitting close
that's enough to keep me here

[Chorus]
Elliot, you're the calm I lean on
steady as the tide going out slow
Elliot, easy in the quiet
that's the love I want to know

[Outro]
Two plates still resting soft together
that's you and me, however long
