Sunday Static (Emo Cover)

V5.5

[Intro | jangling 12-string guitar, light synth swell] [Verse 1 | soft vocals, dry guitar] Spoon scraping against the ceramic bowl I'm listening to the kettle boil You left your book on the coffee table Open to a page you never told The dust is dancing in the morning light I don't know how you sleep at night [Chorus | layered vocals, fuller drums, synth pad] And it's the Sunday static on the wire Just a little hum of something not quite higher We don't have to say the things we mean It's enough to watch the shadows on the wall It's enough to watch the shadows on the wall [Verse 2 | bass enters, steady kick drum] My phone is face down on the rug The screen is dark, the notification bug I'm checking the time just to see if you'd call I'm walking through the hallway, waiting for a sound But it's quiet here where we don't have to be found [Chorus | layered vocals, fuller drums, synth pad] And it's the Sunday static on the wire Just a little hum of something not quite higher We don't have to say the things we mean It's enough to watch the shadows on the wall It's enough to watch the shadows on the wall [Bridge | stripped back, just bass and vocals] Maybe next week we'll know more Maybe the weather will break the floor But today I'm just standing still Watching the dust in the light drift [Guitar Solo | melodic, clean guitar, subtle delay] [Chorus | layered vocals, full band, softer drums] And it's the Sunday static on the wire Just a little hum of something not quite higher We don't have to say the things we mean It's enough to watch the shadows on the wall It's enough to watch the shadows on the wall [Outro | jangling guitar fades, synth swell out] Shadows on the wall Static on the wire Watching the shadows on the wall
