Static Hold 2 (Version 2)

Verse

Smoke folds thick over the console's rim

Two arms fold in on the same low hum

I don't turn when you slide into my side

You know every gear I've been through

Every pulse that's locked this room to glue

You're not here for the light at the end of the line

You already have it, right here and now

Your shoulder touches mine on the sixteenth beat

The kick drum folds us both down low again

No space left between the two of us, just one current we ride

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the same low hum start to run through your chest?

Is this what they call love in a room full of iron and heat?

I don't know if I'm asking for a name or just a steady hand

But right here, right now, I want this hold to stand

Chorus

Hold on tight to the static we make

Don't let it fade till the lights come back up

Every pulse you feel is mine too, every breath you take

We'll ride this current till there's nothing left but steel and sound

Hold on tight to the static we make

I'm right here with you in this iron cage

This isn't love, not yet or maybe never still

But for one long hour, let it be enough to hold us still

Verse

The strobe cuts down low over your collarbone

Your fingers find mine on the console's metal spine

You don't look up but I know you're tracking every line of my face

Every pulse that keeps our hands from letting go

You're not a stranger in this crowded room full of iron and glass

I've seen you moving through the fog before, but never like this

Not like we share one single current running straight down to bone

Something's burning here that doesn't need a name or a light of its own

Pre-Chorus

Can you feel the same low hum start to run through your chest?

Is this what they call love in a room full of iron and heat?

I don't know if I'm asking for a name or just a steady hand

But right here, right now, I want this hold to stand

Chorus

Hold on tight to the static we make

Don't let it fade till the lights come back up

Every pulse you feel is mine too, every breath you take

We'll ride this current till there's nothing left but steel and sound

Hold on tight to the static we make

I'm right here with you in this iron cage

This isn't love, not yet or maybe never still

But for one long hour, let it be enough to hold us still

Bridge

No names. No light. Just the hum and your hand on mine

That's all I need right now, that's more than fine

This isn't a feeling that's going anywhere fast

It's just something in this iron room that won't last

Chorus

Hold on tight to the static we make

Don't let it fade till the lights come back up

Every pulse you feel is mine too, every breath you take

We'll ride this current till there's nothing left but steel and sound

Hold on tight to the static we make

I'm right here with you in this iron cage

This isn't love, not yet or maybe never still

But for one long hour, let it be enough to hold us still
