Static Holds (Version 2)

Verse

Black smoke curls past your collarbone

Concrete holds the weight of all our names

Every light goes dark then finds its way again

Your hand finds mine through the sound wave

Bodies stacking up against the wall

Nobody here can hear my name at all

Floor tilts soft, I lose my edge

Static pulls me toward you instead

Pre-Chorus

Where do we end and the black begins?

Something's rising under my skin

Can't feel it yet but I feel it start

Chorus

Static holds us, static holds us tight

Skin to smoke to nothing in between tonight

Lose your shape, lose mine too

We don't need a name, just what's true

Hands up till the room goes gray

Static holds us, stay

Verse 2

Strobe cuts white across your jawline

Bass pulls harder than my will can hold

Every breath goes quiet then it's loud again

Your pulse beats time with mine alone

Smoke machines breathing out the door

Nobody moves like they used to walk no more

The room forgets its corners, forgets its floor

Static keeps us moving when there's nothing more

Pre-Chorus

Where do we end and the black begins?

Something's rising under my skin

Can't feel it yet but I feel it start

Chorus

Static holds us, static holds us tight

Skin to smoke to nothing in between tonight

Lose your shape, lose mine too

We don't need a name, just what's true

Hands up till the room goes gray

Static holds us, stay

Bridge

No names left behind the wall

Just this pull that never falls

Your pulse is mine now, not my own

The static knows where I belong

It keeps me close even when it's loud

I don't feel like myself right now

I feel like something I've been waiting for

Chorus

Static holds us, static holds us tight

Skin to smoke to nothing in between tonight

Lose your shape, lose mine too

We don't need a name, just what's true

Hands up till the room goes gray

Static holds us, stay
