Salt and Static

[Intro]
[Verse]
The asphalt's bleeding neon red
Two a.m. inside my head
I'm walking through the silver mist
Like a ghost that can't exist
The arcade hums a hollow tune
Beneath a jagged paper moon
[Pre-Chorus]
And then I see your silhouette
A shadow I can't quite forget
My heart is hitting like a drum
I’m frozen here and feeling numb
[Chorus]
Dancing under the Ferris wheel
Tell me how you're supposed to feel
When summer love is just a stain
Washed away by midnight rain
You’re holding her so very tight
In the flicker of the blue light
[Post-Chorus]
Just a flicker in the blue light
Lost inside the velvet night
Yeah, you're holding her so tight
In the flicker of the blue light
Can we make it through the night?
Everything will be alright
[Verse]
The carousel is spinning slow
And painted horses start to glow
Your laughter tastes like salt and gin
Where does the memory begin?
A velvet ribbon in the wind
A secret that we both have pinned
[Pre-Chorus]
And then I see your silhouette
A shadow I can't quite forget
My heart is hitting like a drum
I’m frozen here and feeling numb
[Chorus]
Dancing under the Ferris wheel
Tell me how you're supposed to feel
When summer love is just a stain
Washed away by midnight rain
You’re holding her so very tight
In the flicker of the blue light
[Bridge]
The trumpet wails a lonely sign
I’m crossing over every line
The ocean swallows up the shore
I don’t want to want you anymore
But the slap of the bass is a sting
To every little broken thing
[Solo]
[Chorus]
Dancing under the Ferris wheel
Tell me how you're supposed to feel
When summer love is just a stain
Washed away by midnight rain
You’re holding her so very tight
In the flicker of the blue light
[Post-Chorus]
Just a flicker in the blue light
Lost inside the velvet night
Yeah, you're holding her so tight
In the flicker of the blue light
Can we make it through the night?
Everything will be alright
[Outro]
