Sweet Static

Intro – soft piano + faint radio fuzz]
(tuning sound)
You ever miss someone so bad…
you can still hear them through the noise?

⸻

[Verse 1]
The station fades between our song,
Same old feeling, still feels wrong.
I said goodbye, but it didn’t stick,
The past keeps playing — it’s a dirty trick.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus]
Every night, I chase that sound,
Your echo spins me round and round.
You’re gone, but I can’t detach,
I keep reaching through the static, just to match.

⸻

[Chorus – soaring 90s power vocal moment]
Sweet static, don’t you fade,
You’re the ghost my heart replayed.
Every hum, every broken line,
Still whispers you were mine.
Sweet static, don’t go quiet yet,
You’re the song I can’t forget.
I keep hearing you in every crowd,
Sweet static, play me loud.

⸻

[Verse 2]
Coffee cold and daylight cruel,
I keep waiting like a fool.
Your memory wears a velvet crown,
You’re gone — but I can’t turn you down.

⸻

[Pre-Chorus 2]
I should change the frequency,
But your tune still lives in me.
Every pulse, every rhyme,
Still beats you in time.

⸻

[Bridge – emotional, cinematic build]
I twist the dial, but it’s all the same,
Your voice comes back, calling my name.
Maybe we were never through —
Maybe static sounds like you.

(soft instrumental, faint echo: “sweet static… sweet static…”)

⸻

[Final Chorus – powerful, full vocal run]
Sweet static, don’t you fade,
You’re the ghost my heart replayed.
Every hum, every broken line,
Still whispers you were mine.
Sweet static, I can’t forget,
You’re the song in my regret.
Turn me off, but not for long,
Sweet static — play our song.
