Static Signal Home (वर्ज़न 2)

Verse

Rearview mirror half full of rain

License plate number fading like a name

Radio humming a tune I used to know

Chalk marks on the dashboard where the map once went

Gas station glow flickering through the glass

Same four lanes, different year, same pace

Every town looks small at midnight

Streetlights folding into one long line

Pre-Chorus

So I keep my eyes down on the road

Don't look up for the exit sign

Chorus

Static signal home

Fading like a ghost but I'm still holding on

Static signal home

Every mile is further from where I began

Verse

Diner coffee, paper cup gone cold

Waitress knows my name, doesn't know my story

Route 17, same old song, every year

Signs blink past like they're trying to keep me here

Empty seat beside me, ghost of someone's laugh

City lights thin out, just sky and asphalt

Pre-Chorus

So I keep my eyes down on the road

Don't look up for the exit sign

Chorus

Static signal home

Fading like a ghost but I'm still holding on

Static signal home

Every mile is further from where I began

Bridge

Maybe home was just a shape, not a place

A spark that left when I turned the key

I carry it in my chest instead of my suitcase

So the highway turns to melody

Chorus

Static signal home

Fading like a ghost but I'm still holding on

Static signal home

Every mile is further from where I began
