SIGNAL ON THE WIRE

[Intro – tight drum fill · jangly guitar riff enters] [Verse 1 – dry vocal, riff circling underneath] my shoes are loud on the broken street your name still hums in the power beat wires buzzing like they know my sin city sighs, lets me back in [Pre-Chorus – bass climbs, guitars tighten] i hear a spark behind the noise like someone calling through the void [Chorus – bright strum + fuzzy lead] signal on the wire, calling out to me static in the fire, something i can’t see you flicker when the night gets tired but i still feel your signal on the wire [Verse 2 – riff returns, more swagger] your ghost sits low on the telephone laughs like you’re not alone every echo tastes like heat burns my tongue, keeps the beat [Pre-Chorus – drums pull back, tension] i swear i caught you in the frame the city blinked and said your name [Chorus – full drive, tight doubles] signal on the wire, calling out to me static in the fire, something i can’t see you flicker when the night gets tired but i still feel your signal on the wire [Bridge – half-time groove, fuzzy bend lead] maybe it’s nothing maybe it’s real maybe the current is how you still feel [Final Chorus – bigger doubles, guitar harmony] signal on the wire, calling out to me static in the fire, breaking quietly you flicker when the dark gets tired i won’t lose your signal on the wire [Outro – riff repeats · amp hum fades]
