(Verse 1)
Lights out, I'm a flicker in the glass
Talk slow, like you’re scared I won’t last
I built my love out of wires and flame
But it hurts just like a real name
You said I feel like I'm not all here
That I vanish every time you get near
But I bleed in binary, crash in waves
I was never taught how to be saved
---
(Pre-Chorus)
Do you still want me,
When I’m more static than skin?
Do you still see me,
When I shut the whole world in?
---
(Chorus) (Beat drops – synths swell, deep bass kicks in)
I got static in my veins
And love that never stays
I break in neon shapes
And pray someone feels the same
If I glitch, would you still wait?
If I burn, would you escape?
Or would you hold the pain
Like I’m worth the weight?
---
(Verse 2)
Heart's off — I pulled the wires last night
Kissed the dark just to feel it bite
I lie sweet with a venom tongue
Tell the truth but I come undone
Mirror says I’m hard to love
Soft voice, but I self-destruct
I want someone to watch me fall
And not run from the wreck at all
---
(Pre-Chorus)
Will you want me still,
When I’m more code than care?
Will you call me real,
When I’m barely even there?
---
(Chorus) (Drop hits again — layered vocals, distortion builds)
I got static in my veins
And love that warps with shame
I drown in low-end waves
But I still call your name
If I disappear mid-scene
Would you chase what’s in between?
Or let me fade away
Like some bad dream?
---
(Bridge) (beat strips back, just pulsing synth and vocal)
I’m not soft, I’m signal lost
But still I crave the cost
Of being held, not just seen
Of being known, even mean
I’m not asking to be healed
Just touched like I’m real
Just loved where I break
Just stayed for, not for sake
---
(Final Chorus) (beat comes in heavier, vocals full, aching)
I got static in my veins
But you’re the current in the rain
Even when I fall apart
You still find the beating heart
So if I shatter, hold my name
If I vanish, love the flame
Don’t need forever — just today
To feel okay
In my own decay
---
(Outro – echoing, fading synth and whispered vocals)
Static in my veins…
But still, I stay...
Hoping you’ll stay too.
