Static in Shibuya

[Intro]
[Verse]
Blue lights on the wet street
Echoes of my own feet
Static on the concrete
Bitter and it's so sweet
Vending machine glow
Nowhere left to go
Watch the river flow
Deep in the city below
[Pre-Chorus]
Insert the game
Forget my name
The screen starts to flicker
My heart beats quicker
[Chorus]
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The prettiest girl I’ve ever seen
Sixteen bits of pure desire
Setting my digital soul on fire
Lost in the neon haze
Trapped in a pixel maze
Electric blue eyes
Under artificial skies
[Post-Chorus]
Static and rain
Digital pain
Call out your name
It’s never the same
[Verse]
Cracked flip phone display
Nothing left to say
Kanji on the glass
Watching hours pass
Translations are broken
Words left unspoken
The cartridge is smoking
And I am just choking
[Pre-Chorus]
The signal is weak
The future is bleak
You’re only a spark
Lost in the dark
[Chorus]
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The prettiest girl I’ve ever seen
Sixteen bits of pure desire
Setting my digital soul on fire
Lost in the neon haze
Trapped in a pixel maze
Electric blue eyes
Under artificial skies
[Bridge]
We dreamed of the sky
But the chips went dry
The hardware is old
The circuit is cold
A future we missed
A digital tryst
[Hook]
Tokyo night
Hold me tight
Digital light
Out of sight
[Breakdown]
Zeroes and ones
The battery runs
Fading to black
No turning back
[Chorus]
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The prettiest girl I’ve ever seen
Sixteen bits of pure desire
Setting my digital soul on fire
Lost in the neon haze
Trapped in a pixel maze
Electric blue eyes
Under artificial skies
[Outro]
