Static on the Shore

[Intro]
[Verse]
Chrome drips in the rain
Driving through the pain
Eighty-seven kicks to life
Cutting through the quiet strife
Visor streaked with grey
Chasing what went away
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn the dial to the right
Through the heavy velvet night
I can hear the hum
Of what we have become
[Chorus]
Static on the shore
I need a little more
Of the voice I used to know
Where did the neon go?
Fading in the mist
Like a secret that we missed
[Post-Chorus]
Can you hear it?
Are you near it?
In the dead air
I can find you there
[Verse]
Phosphor screens are dead
Wires in my head
Soldered every broken dream
Nothing’s ever what it seems
The master of the game
Forgetting my own name
[Chorus]
Static on the shore
I need a little more
Of the voice I used to know
Where did the neon go?
Fading in the mist
Like a secret that we missed
[Bridge]
Pier lights blinking slow
Nowhere else to go
The Prophet sings a tune
Underneath a hollow moon
I’m redlining the gear
Trying to disappear
[Hook]
Frequency of fire
Burning on the wire
Ghost in the machine
Everything we’ve seen
[Verse]
The joystick is cold
The stories are told
But the airwaves still hum
To the beat of the drum
Capacitors start to leak
The signal is getting weak
I reach the end of the line
Waiting for a final sign
[Chorus]
Static on the shore
I need a little more
Of the voice I used to know
Where did the neon go?
Fading in the mist
Like a secret that we missed
[Outro]
