Static is my Life

Watch me Burn

Yeah

I don’t hear peace, I just hear…

Hssst

Listen

Every time it go quiet I flinch

Silence feel fake, I don’t trust that glitch

Head full of patterns I can’t unmix

Lines in my brain like a busted switch

TV snow in my skull on loop

White noise crawling up out the roof

You left that crater right through my chest

Now all that hum just moved in as a guest (yeah)

Can’t see clear, it’s a broken feed

Ghosts in the pixels keep choking me

You walked out, now it’s loud in here

Whole room buzzing like it smell of fear

Static in my veins, static in my sight

You tore out my heart, filled the hole with the hype

Every little crack, every empty space

Filling up fast with that angry haze

I’m always hearing it, always seeing it (yeah)

Won’t let me forget where you left me sick

You put that hole in my heart that night

Now static is my life, static is my life

Words from you just smear like ink

Try to rewind but the tape just kinks

All our memories, chopped and spliced

Frames all jump where you cut my life

I count my sins by the hiss and pop

Every bad thought got its own small drop

When I try to pray, signal break and bend

Even my god got a glitch at the end

Friends talk sweet but they mouths just buzz

Lip-sync love with a hollow fuzz

I don’t feel touch, only feel the sting

Like every hug got a broken ring (yeah, yeah)

Static in my veins, static in my sight

You tore out my heart, filled the hole with the hype

Every little crack, every empty space

Filling up fast with that angry haze

I’m always hearing it, always seeing it (hey)

Won’t let me forget where you left me sick

You put that hole in my heart that night

Now static is my life, static is my life

If I rip my chest wide, would it just be snow?

A million tiny needles where the love should go

If I change the channel, would you reappear?

Or would the screen still whisper that you’re nowhere near? (nowhere)

If I smash this set, would the sound turn clean?

Or would the shock just burn through another dream?

You left your echo, carved it in deep

Now even my sleep got a broken beat

Static in my veins, static in my sight

You tore out my heart, filled the hole with the hype

Every little crack, every empty space

Filling up fast with that angry haze

I’m always hearing it, always seeing it (yeah)

Won’t let me forget where you left me sick

You put that hole in my heart that night

Now static is my life, static is my life (static)

Static is my life, static is my life

Static in my eyes, static in my veins

Run it through my body, through the wires in my brain

You put that hole in my heart, left an empty space

Static moved in, now it’s living in your place

Always hear the buzz, always see the rain

Little black dots crawling all across my pain

My mind so twisted I can’t see your face

Just static in my chest, static in your place

(Yeah)

(Yeah)
