Lyric

You tap your answer out, then let it sit unread

A thousand tiny thoughts are buzzing in my head

The city blurs in lines outside the speeding glass

I feel the words we never say begin to crack

All of our wires are crossed

Signals are cutting off

Every unfinished phrase

Burns in the feedback haze

Static between us, nothing getting through

Every broken sentence keeps circling back to you

Static between us, louder than the truth

We are talking in the noise, but we never break through

We stare at tiny screens instead of each other’s eyes

Your face in colored light is learning how to lie

You say you’re almost there, you’re stuck in endless loops

I’m counting down the beats until the signal moves

All of our maps are torn

Routes we don’t follow anymore

Every unfinished call

Echoes down another wall

Static between us, nothing getting through

Every broken sentence keeps circling back to you

Static between us, louder than the truth

We are talking in the noise, but we never break through

Tonight the highway lights are rushing in a row

I feel the engine shake like something letting go

If all we ever hear is empty rushing sound

I’ll find a place outside this line we’re running down

Static between us, nothing getting through

Every broken sentence keeps circling back to you

Static between us, louder than the truth

We are talking in the noise, but we never break through
