(Intro) The red light clicks. The room goes still. Three, two, one... (Verse 1) Step up to the silver mesh, breathe the silence in Before the frequencies collide and the words begin A map of copper wires running deep beneath the floor Waiting for the signal to unlock another door The clock upon the wall is counting down the final beat As the city settles down along the empty street (Chorus) We are live, we are high above the town Sending out a lifeline where the rain is falling down Catch the wave, hold the line, spinning through the atmosphere Can you hear me calling? We are on air Yeah, we are on air (Verse 2) The needle on the dial dances right into the red Chasing every shadow, waking up the sleepyhead A voice across the distance traveling a thousand miles Flipping through the letters and the dusty vinyl piles No safety net below us, just a current in the dark A single spark of electricity can leave a mark (Chorus) We are live, we are high above the town Sending out a lifeline where the rain is falling down Catch the wave, hold the line, spinning through the atmosphere Can you hear me calling? We are on air Yeah, we are on air (Bridge) Open up the fader, let the music take the room Breaking through the static, wait—no, breaking through the gloom Every secret whispered to a cold metal grill Travels through the valley, climbs across the highest hill We are the pulse, we are the sound, we are the open sky (Guitar Solo / Instrumental Build) (Chorus) We are live, we are high above the town Sending out a lifeline where the rain is falling down Catch the wave, hold the line, spinning through the atmosphere Can you hear me calling? We are on air Yeah, we are on air (Outro) The hour's getting late now, but the signal's running strong Thank you for the company, thank you for the song Sign off for the evening, pull the slider down Leave the morning promises to the waking town Fading out... Fading out... Mic closed.
