Static in My Veins

(Intro)

Can you hear it?

That sound in your head when the world goes dead…

(Verse 1)

Streetlights flicker through the rain

Another night wired to pain

Radio ghosts inside my skull

Every heartbeat over-pulled

Hands shake like a live grenade

Smile cracked but the mask stays

Everybody says “hold on”

Like they know what I’ve become

(Pre-Chorus)

But there’s a pulse beneath the numb

A war drum beating in my blood

(Chorus)

There’s static in my veins tonight

Electric chaos, blackened light

I tried to kill the noise for years

But now I let the signal scream

I won’t fade into the gray

I won’t disappear again

Turn the suffering into sound

And shake the heavens to the ground

(Verse 2)

Broken bottles, burned-out rooms

Living like a ticking fuse

Every mirror split in two

One half dead, one fighting through

Friends vanished like smoke at dawn

Still somehow I carried on

Built a throne from all the scars

Now the dark can see my heart

(Pre-Chorus)

And every scar became a wire

Feeding power to the fire

(Chorus)

There’s static in my veins tonight

Electric chaos, blackened light

I tried to kill the noise for years

But now I let the signal scream

I won’t fade into the gray

I won’t disappear again

Turn the suffering into sound

And shake the heavens to the ground

(Breakdown)

LOUDER

LOUDER

LET IT SHAKE YOUR BONES

WE WERE NEVER MEANT

TO DIE ALONE

EVERY LOST SOUL

EVERY SHATTERED KID

SING IT LIKE A WARCRY

UNTIL THE DARKNESS SPLITS

(Bridge)

Maybe we were born from storms

Maybe broken is another form

Of becoming something no one can destroy

(Final Chorus)

There’s static in my veins tonight

And for once it feels alive

No more drowning in the silence

No more running from the fight

If the world wants me erased

I’ll carve my name across the sky

A thousand volts beneath my skin

And I’m finally ready to survive

(Outro)

Still hear the static…

Still hear the pulse…

Still alive.
