Static between stations

(Verse 1)  
You twist the dial like you're searching for truth  
But all we get’s the white noise of youth  
Flickers of voices, a song half-played  
Another piece of me that couldn’t stay  

Your boots on the dash, your head in the clouds  
I speak in silence 'cause I can't be loud  
Every new town’s a blurry face  
Like I’m fading out, trying to find my place  

(Chorus)  
I’m the static between stations  
The ghost in the transmission  
A half-sung line in a song that skips  
Left behind with every mile we flip  
You hear the music, I feel the void  
I’m breaking up in all this noise  
If I’m not who I was, who am I now?  
Just a frequency you can't tune out  

(Verse 2)  
You sing along like you're still whole  
But I feel the cracks beneath my soul  
The voices change—cheerful, then grave  
I wonder which one you'd still save  

We chase the sun with an engine's scream  
But what if freedom’s just a dream?  
I lost myself to open skies  
Now I’m a shadow behind your eyes  

(Bridge)  
Flick that switch, tune me in  
I swear there's more beneath this skin  
A signal’s there—you’ve just gone blind  
To the static heart you left behind  

(Final Chorus)  
I’m the static between stations  
Still alive in the hesitation  
Screamin’ through a storm  
Tryna feel like I still belong  
You're driving fast, but I’m standing still  
A ghost you carry against your will  
If love was once a perfect sound  
Now it's static... drowning me out
