Chains In The Static (Remastered)
[Intro, Dirty clean guitar with distant amp hum] Mmhh... Yeah... [Verse 1, Low restrained vocals] Hallway lights flicker weak Haven’t heard myself speak Coffee stains and nicotine Cover everything between Dirty dishes in the sink Too exhausted now to think Morning pressing through the gray Wish the daylight stayed away [Pre-Chorus, Rising vocal harmonies] And the walls begin to breathe... Every shadow watching me... [Chorus, Heavy distorted guitars with layered harmonies] Chains in the static hum Waiting for what I become Every nerve burns black and blue Every road leads back to you Hear the broken angels crawl Down the cracks along the wall I keep sinking through the noise Trying to destroy the void [Verse 2, Thick bass-driven groove] Television glowing red Like a wound beside the bed Empty bottles on the floor Don’t feel human anymore Rain keeps tapping on the glass Like reminders from the past Every memory tastes wrong Still I drag them all along [Pre-Chorus, Tense harmonized buildup] And the ceiling hangs too low... Like it already knows... [Chorus, Massive sludgy chorus] Chains in the static hum Waiting for what I become Every nerve burns black and blue Every road leads back to you Hear the broken angels crawl Down the cracks along the wall I keep sinking through the noise Trying to destroy the void [Bridge, Half-whispered dark passage] No sleep... No light... Only ghosts awake tonight... Hold still... Fall through... Nothing here feels true... [Guitar Solo, Slow emotional grunge guitar solo with sustained bends, thick feedback and mournful phrasing] [Final Chorus, Biggest emotional section] Chains in the static hum Waiting for what I become Every nerve burns black and blue Every road leads back to you Hear the broken angels crawl Down the cracks along the wall I keep sinking through the noise Trying to destroy the void [Outro, Fading feedback and layered exhausted vocals] Mmhh... Still numb... Still here...
