LILY ROSEN - STATIC HEARTBEAT

​[Chorus] Across the static, across the night I’m chasing shadows in the fading light I’m counting heartbeats, searching for a sign I’m tracing echoes that were once all mine I’d cross the planet, defy the space Just to vanish into your embrace Synchronized souls, lost in the neon haze Waiting for the sky to wash the cold dark away. ​[Verse 1 ] The city moves at a thousand miles I walk the glass, miles and miles of files I wear your shirt, it’s all that’s left A scent of you, a beautiful theft I’m breathing in the fabric, seeking a trace Of the memory mapped on your distant face Do you think of me when the lights go down? Are you wandering lost in a different town? ​[Pre-Chorus] Glitch in the heart, a static flow I’m nowhere now, with nowhere to go Like a ghost in the wires, I’m fading thin Waiting for the moment that the real starts to begin. ​[Chorus] Across the static, across the night I’m chasing shadows in the fading light I’m counting heartbeats, searching for a sign I’m tracing echoes that were once all mine I’d cross the planet, defy the space Just to vanish into your embrace Synchronized souls, lost in the neon haze Waiting for the sky to wash the cold dark away! ​[Verse 2] My life is a loop, a velvet reel I’m numb to the touch, I’m forgetting to feel Just a walking shadow, a flicker in time Searching for a rhythm, a reason, a rhyme If I could collapse the distance between I’d teleport right through the cracks in the screen No more waiting, no more hollow blue Just the heartbeat where I’m burning for you. ​[Bridge] The world is a filter, cold and stark I’m carving your name right into the dark Are you doing the same? Are you pulling the thread? Or am I just dreaming inside of my head? Break the barrier! End the wait! I’m crashing the borders of my own fate! ​[Chorus] Across the static, across the night I’m chasing shadows in the fading light I’m counting heartbeats, searching for a sign I’m tracing echoes that were once all mine I’d cross the planet, defy the space Just to vanish into your embrace Synchronized souls, lost in the neon haze Waiting for the sky to wash the cold dark away! ​[Outro] Just breathe... I’m still here. Static in the dark. Waiting for the spark.
