Rooftop Static (Version 2)

Intro

Static in the rafters, low and gold

Your palm finds mine on the rooftop rail

Verse 1

Copper light bleeding into the haze

Your jacket catches every fading ray

Speaker stack humming where the city ends

Every window's a spark we can't pretend

Pre-Chorus

Hold still for a minute, watch the dark climb

Then let it go and see us find our own time

Chorus

Rooftop static in the amber haze

We're turning gold before the night turns grey

Hands up catching stars that never came through

Static on the rooftop is all we knew

Verse 2

Neon's fading but my heartbeat stays bright

Sirens low in the distance, far out of sight

Your thumb finds the silver thread on my sleeve

Nobody's counting what hour this is supposed to be

Pre-Chorus

Hold still for a minute, watch the dark climb

Then let it go and see us find our own time

Chorus

Rooftop static in the amber haze

We're turning gold before the night turns grey

Hands up catching stars that never came through

Static on the rooftop is all we knew

Bridge

The sirens fade to nothing but the sway

City lights down, we keep it for ourselves now

No schedule here just this quiet glow

Let's make tonight the only thing that stays

Chorus

Rooftop static in the amber haze

We're turning gold before the night turns grey

Hands up catching stars that never came through

Static on the rooftop is all we knew
