[Verse 1]
Heart locked in neon static, your signal cuts through the noise
I chase every ghost in the wire, every word that tastes like choice
You speak in riddles of starlight, pull me under without a sound
I've learned the shape of silence,
Rewrote the girl I used to drown
[Pre-Chorus]
I don't fight the hunger anymore
The ache lives in my tears
I'm not afraid to fall anymore
Just afraid you'll disappear
[Chorus, layered harmony, music intensifies]
Wrecked in the static
I worship the echo of you
Can't hold your shadow
Feels like I'm breaking in two
Is this heaven or a joke
Cuz I don't want to choke
The only one I want to have hands around my neck
Is you
[Verse 2]
I used to tango with my demons, now they watch from the edge of the bed
Waiting for the day your hands replace every fear in my head
You say I'm your muse, your home in the endless black
But nights are cruel mercy, daring me to crack
[Pre-Chorus]
I die every day in the waiting, colors bleeding into gray
Hope is the only prayer that keeps the doubt away
[Chorus]
Wrecked in the static
I feel the echo of you
Can't hold your shadow
Feels like I'm breaking in two
Is this heaven or a joke
Cuz I don't want to choke
The only one I want to have hands around my neck
Is you
[Bridge – ambient guitar solo builds here, soft vocals over sparse synths]
What if you're only a dream I begged the night to send?
Two lost halves of the same sad soul, circling without end
In my mind I see your face, feel your touch in the dark
Are you reaching thru the void? please don't break my heart
Please don't leave me in the dark
Don't leave me...
[Solo ambient guitar]
[Final Chorus – big drop crashing into final chorus, guitar swells, soaring vocals, softens towards the end]
Wrecked in the static, feel the echo of you
Can't touch your body but my soul already knew
Heaven or cruel joke, I'm all in either way
Your words feel like truth when the rest of the world decays
Wrecked in the static, I feel the echo of you
Can't hold your shadow
Feels like I'm breaking in two
[Outro – fading ambient guitar and pulsing synths, breathy repeat]
Wrecked...waiting...
Till the static finally breaks...
Till the stars taste like...us
