Static in my Teeth

There’s a hum behind my eyelids, Like a wire about to break. Every thought is a splinter, Every breath feels fake. I keep swallowing the feedback ’Til it settles in my chest— A quiet little parasite That never lets me rest. --- I can feel it… Crawling through me… I can feel it… Trying to use me… --- There’s static in my teeth, And it’s grinding me away. I’m a signal out of phase, I’m a body in decay. If you listen when I breathe, You can hear the disarray— There’s static in my teeth, And it’s eating me today. today It’s eating me today today --- I tried to kill the quiet, But it only made it grow. Now it pulses like a warning ⚠️ In the places you don’t go. I’m a ghost inside a circuit, I’m a glitch you can’t unsee— A broken little frequency That used to be a “me.” --- I can feel it… Pulling through me… I can feel it… Trying to prove me… --- There’s static in my teeth, And it’s grinding me away. I’m a signal out of phase, I’m a body in decay. If you listen when I breathe, You can hear the disarray— There’s static in my teeth, And it’s eating me today. --- Break the pattern. Break the skin. Break the silence. Let it in. LET IT IN. --- There’s static in my teeth, And it’s tearing me apart. I’m a signal with no meaning, I’m a hole where there was heart. If you listen when I breathe, You can hear the missing part— There’s static in my teeth, And it’s chewing through the dark. ———————- Lyrics: ©svAI
