Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The ceiling fan is cutting circles in the dark
Counting every crack until I leave a mark
Staring at the plaster like it might reply
Breathing in the silence till it starts to lie
[Pre-Chorus]
You say I'm distant through your bedroom door
But I'm pressed right up against this floor
Every word you send reads like goodbye
Every "it's fine" feels like a quiet "why"
[Chorus]
Static on the line
I hear you
Then you're fading
Every little sigh
Is louder than your saying
If you wanna go
Just say it to my face this time
I'm tired of guessing through
The static on the line
[Verse 2]
Your hoodie on the chair still smells like last July
We argued in the driveway
You swore you'd really try
Now I'm scrolling through the ghosts living in my phone
Blue and gray confessions that still feel like home
[Pre-Chorus]
You tap out "sorry" then you take it back
Delete the truth before the crack
I watch the bubbles
Then they die away
How am I supposed to read a thing you never say
[Chorus]
Static on the line
I hear you
Then you're fading
Every little sigh
Is louder than your saying
If you wanna go
Just say it to my face this time
I'm tired of guessing through
The static on the line
[Bridge]
Raise your voice
Or cut the cord
I can't live
Half-ignored
Say I'm yours
Or let me drown
But don't keep pulling
Pulling me down (hey!)
[Chorus]
Static on the line
I hear you
Then you're screaming
Tangled in your eyes
I can't tell if you're leaving
If you’re walking out
Don't whisper it and call it kind
Just slam the door and kill
The static on the line
[Outro]
The ceiling fan is still carving up the dark
I trace another crack and call it one more scar
If all we have is noise and crossed-out replies
I’ll learn to sleep
Through the static and the lies
