[Intro] [Fast rhythmic muted guitar riff] [Technical slap bass fill] [Heavy syncopated drum hit] [Verse 1] Got a thousand channels running through a single wire My head’s a copper kettle sitting on the fire I’m picking up the signal from a tower in the pines But I can’t read the message ‘tween the jagged lines The needle’s jumping steady in the red tonight I’m looking for the ghost inside the flickering light [Pre-Chorus] (Voltage rising) It’s a hum in the floorboards, a grit in my teeth (Pressure climbing) There’s a hurricane spinning just underneath [Chorus] Give me the Static, let it wash out the frame I’m losing my focus, I’m forgetting my name Just high-frequency fever, a beautiful blur The louder the racket, the better we were (Everything is Static) Yeah, just turn it up [Verse 2] I tried to find the rhythm in the pouring sleet But the pavement's humming underneath my feet Too many voices shouting from the magazine rack I’m stepping off the platform, never looking back My brain is like a radio between the bands Trying to catch a frequency with trembling hands [Pre-Chorus] (Voltage rising) It’s the snap of the breaker, the heat in the wall (Pressure climbing) Waiting for the ceiling and the sky to fall [Chorus] Give me the Static, let it wash out the frame I’m losing my focus, I’m forgetting my name Just high-frequency fever, a beautiful blur The louder the racket, the better we were (Everything is Static) [Bridge] [Tempo shift - Half-time groove] White noise, blue sparks Tearing through the quiet of the city parks [Rapid-fire Guitar and Bass unison lick] Strip it down to the hum! [Screaming vocal sustain] [Guitar Solo] [Fast, bluesy shredding with tapping and wah-pedal] [Aggressive bass counterpoint] [Chorus] Give me the Static, let it wash out the frame I’m losing my focus, I’m forgetting my name Just high-frequency fever, a beautiful blur The louder the racket, the better we were (Everything is Static) [Outro] (Static) It’s all I hear now (Static) Keep it loud, keep it clear now [Technical drum fill] [Final distorted power chord] [Feedback fade out]
