Neon Static

[Intro]
[Verse]
Rain hits the glass like stones
Wipers scrape against the bones
Flickering neon red and blue
I didn't think I'd run into you
Your shadow stretches on the tile
Hiding poison in your smile
[Pre-Chorus]
Crumpled paper in my fist
A name I wish did not exist
The static hum is getting loud
Lost inside this toxic cloud
[Chorus]
Fill the tank with all your lies
Watch the sparks behind your eyes
I’m done waiting for the light
In this hollow, rainy night
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The coldest part of every scene
[Verse]
You lean against the pump so smooth
Looking for a heart to soothe
But my windshield’s cracked and dry
Like every promise, every sigh
The asphalt bleeds a gasoline glow
Nowhere left for us to go
[Pre-Chorus]
Crumpled paper in my fist
A name I wish did not exist
The static hum is getting loud
Lost inside this toxic cloud
[Chorus]
Fill the tank with all your lies
Watch the sparks behind your eyes
I’m done waiting for the light
In this hollow, rainy night
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The coldest part of every scene
[Bridge]
Was it even real at all?
Watching every shadow fall
I’m shivering beneath the hood
I’d burn it down if I only could
My voice is breaking on the edge
Stepping off this jagged ledge
[Hook]
Burn it down
In this town
Watch me drown
Lose the crown
[Chorus]
Fill the tank with all your lies
Watch the sparks behind your eyes
I’m done waiting for the light
In this hollow, rainy night
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The coldest part of every scene
[Post-Chorus]
Ghost in the machine
Rain upon the screen
Everything is mean
Dirty and unseen
[Outro]
