Static

You say my name like it’s already gone

Like something lost you moved on from

The room’s too quiet, the lights hum low

Every truth hides in what we don’t say

I trace the cracks in the ceiling lines

Counting seconds just to kill the time

You’re right here but you’re miles away

I feel you fade every word you say

Pre-Chorus

We’re talking circles, dodging blame

Burning bridges just to stay the same

Chorus

There’s static between us, loud and thin

I’m screaming but it’s caving in

Every touch feels counterfeit

Like we’re breaking but we won’t admit

I’d cross the fire just to feel your spark

But we’re talking in the dark

Verse 2

Your jacket’s still on the back of the chair

Like proof you were ever there

We learned to fight in a calm disguise

Sharp smiles, rehearsed goodbyes

I miss the way you said my name

Before it sounded like a question mark

Now every promise feels half-done

Like a song that stops before the chorus comes

Pre-Chorus

We keep pretending this is fine

Running out of borrowed time

Chorus

There’s static between us, loud and thin

I’m screaming but it’s caving in

Every touch feels counterfeit

Like we’re breaking but we won’t admit

I’d cross the fire just to feel your spark

But we’re talking in the dark

Bridge

Maybe love’s just a frequency

That we lost somewhere between

Who we were and who we became

Two voices out of phase

Say something real

Say something true

Or let the silence finish what we couldn’t do

Final Chorus

There’s static between us, cutting clean

Every word just skims the screen

If this is where the signal ends

I’ll remember how it sounded then

I’d burn it down to leave a mark

But we’re talking in the dark

Outro

If you hear this, if you don’t

I said everything I couldn’t say before
