Tape Hymn 2 (Version 2)

Intro

I keep it on the shelf

Where my shadow likes to dwell

Tape hiss in the dark

Waiting for its spark

Verse 1

Static bloom off the ribbon's edge

Whispers hidden where I never pledge

Fourteen and I made this mix

Every track a promise I fix

Pre-Chorus

Pull the tab, feel it bend

Let the tape take me home again

Chorus

Tape hymn rising through my chest

Turning static into something best

Hands up for the echo turn

Blessed by what will never burn

Tape hymn rising through my chest

We are made of every mistake and rest

Hold it close like a heartbeat in time

Don't let go, let the tape rewind

Verse 2

Bass throb on the floor below

Pins dropped from the pockets I used to know

I never lost that hum inside

Every fade, every other side

Pre-Chorus

Pull the tab, feel it bend

Let the tape take me home again

Chorus

Tape hymn rising through my chest

Turning static into something best

Hands up for the echo turn

Blessed by what will never burn

Tape hymn rising through my chest

We are made of every mistake and rest

Hold it close like a heartbeat in time

Don't let go, let the tape rewind

Bridge

No tape left to unwind

Just the echo I've been trying to find

Every mix on repeat now

This is where we first get to move

Chorus

Tape hymn rising through my chest

Turning static into something best

Hands up for the echo turn

Blessed by what will never burn

Tape hymn rising through my chest

We are made of every mistake and rest

Hold it close like a heartbeat in time

Don't let go, let the tape rewind
