Static on the Line

[Intro]
[Verse]
Quarter slots and neon blue
Static on the line for you
Wet pavement reflecting light
Ghostly hum of the city night
Cold receiver against my ear
Wait for words I’ll never hear
[Pre-Chorus]
Blue light on the screen
Fading like a dream
Three dots never move
Nothing left to prove
[Chorus]
Half-asleep in the rain
Drowning out the silent pain
Washing cycles spinning slow
Where did all the magic go?
A goodbye I never said
Echoes inside my head
[Post-Chorus]
Spinning slow
Never said
In my head
[Verse]
Night bus on a hollow street
Foggy glass and empty seat
Read receipt from yesterday
Watching colors bleed away
Laundromat is humming low
Nowhere else for me to go
[Chorus]
Half-asleep in the rain
Drowning out the silent pain
Washing cycles spinning slow
Where did all the magic go?
A goodbye I never said
Echoes inside my head
[Bridge]
Tape hiss and the bass
Blurred lines on your face
Time is warped and thin
Where do I begin?
Waterlogged and deep
City’s gone to sleep
[Hook]
Dial tone
All alone
Silver chrome
Far from home
[Outro]
