[Intro] Can you hear me? ...Can you— [Verse 1] Your voice came through in pieces Between the static and the rain You said, "Don't wait up for me" Like you'd ever say my name The streetlights bled through windows While the whole apartment shook I watched the little red light blinking Too afraid to even look [Pre-Chorus] One bar— Then nothing One breath— Then gone I kept my hand against the speaker Like I could hold the signal on [Chorus] Where do you go After the signal dies? When all that's left is an empty line And your last words won't leave my mind I call your name But the silence replies If you're somewhere beyond this noise Give me anything— Anything— After the signal dies [Post-Chorus] Are you there? Are you there? [Verse 2] Three seventeen that morning Your message finally came No words, just seven seconds Of breathing through the rain I played it back a hundred times Searching every sound For footsteps, tires, a closing door Some proof you turned around But underneath the interference Buried somewhere low I swear I heard you whisper Something I wasn't meant to know [Pre-Chorus] One word— Then nothing One breath— Then gone Now I'm screaming at the speaker Like I can drag the signal on [Chorus] Where did you go After the signal died? You left your ghost on an empty line And your last breath won't leave my mind I call your name But the silence replies If you're somewhere beyond this noise Give me anything— Anything— After the signal dies [Instrumental Break] "...if you can hear this..." [Bridge] Maybe I knew. Maybe that's why I never answered when you called that night Maybe I saw your name Burning white against the dark And let it disappear Because loving you was easy Until loving you meant fear So I blamed the dead connection I blamed the storm outside I blamed every broken tower Every mile and every wire But there was never any static Between your voice and mine I heard you. I just didn't answer In time. [Final Chorus] WHERE DID YOU GO AFTER THE SIGNAL DIED? When I was here on the other side With your name burning in my eyes I call your name Though I know you can't reply I'd tear apart every frequency For one more second— One more sign— Where did you go After the signal died? (I heard you calling) I was the silence On the other side (I heard you calling) God, I heard you— I just thought we had more time [Outro] One bar... No bars. "...goodnight."
