Static Burn

[Intro]
[Verse]
Scuffed leather on the wet concrete
Drowning out your hollow heartbeat
I’m leaving every lie behind
I’m leaving you to rot and grind
Black ink running down the page
Breaking out of this golden cage
[Pre-Chorus]
You kept the heavy iron keys
I’m the one you couldn’t freeze
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The loudest ghost I’ve ever seen
[Chorus]
Crush the tapes beneath my heel
Finally knowing how I feel
Cold rain stinging on my face
Leaving not a single trace
Yeah, I’m finally free
I am finally free
[Post-Chorus]
I’m walking out
Without a doubt
[Verse]
Plastic casing snaps in two
I’m done with being used by you
Magnetic ribbon in the mud
Thicker than our creative blood
The street is slick, the air is cold
I’m breaking every single mold
[Pre-Chorus]
You kept the heavy iron keys
I’m the one you couldn’t freeze
You’re just a ghost in the machine
The loudest ghost I’ve ever seen
[Chorus]
Crush the tapes beneath my heel
Finally knowing how I feel
Cold rain stinging on my face
Leaving not a single trace
Yeah, I’m finally free
I am finally free
[Bridge]
You can keep the studio lights
I’ll take the rain and lonely nights
You can keep the master track
I’m never, ever looking back
No more regret
No safety net
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Crush the tapes beneath my heel
Finally knowing how I feel
Cold rain stinging on my face
Leaving not a single trace
Yeah, I’m finally free
I am finally free
[Outro]
