Static Stars

[Intro]
[Verse]
Fluorescent halos flicker low
The machines put on a show
Steam curls into ghostly white
In the middle of the night
[Pre-Chorus]
You fold your sweater neat
Tapping your lonely feet
The rhythm is a silver thread
Inside my heavy head
[Chorus]
Suds drift like falling stars
Spinning in these metal bars
A cosmic dance in G major
The heart is a risky wager
Floating in a blue glow
Where the quiet spirits go
[Verse]
Your sweater matches mine
Crossing a celestial line
One look is all it took
A page from a dusty book
The glockenspiel pings the hour
Love is a fragile flower
[Chorus]
Suds drift like falling stars
Spinning in these metal bars
A cosmic dance in G major
The heart is a risky wager
Floating in a blue glow
Where the quiet spirits go
[Bridge]
The slide guitar begins to swell
Underneath this neon spell
You leave through the glass door
I don't see you anymore
But there's a memento left
Of a quiet, gentle theft
[Hook]
One lost blue sock remains
Washing away the stains
A soft and cotton ghost
The thing I value most
[Chorus]
Suds drift like falling stars
Spinning in these metal bars
A cosmic dance in G major
The heart is a risky wager
Floating in a blue glow
Where the quiet spirits go
[Outro]
