Embers In The Static (Version 2)

Verse

Smoke ring drifts by the fire exit door

Bass leaks out through the concrete floor

You cup the ember so the wind won't steal it

Pass it over, but our fingers don't seal it

Pre-Chorus

Is it the heat or the space we're saving

Does the glow count as touch when it's staying

Chorus

Embers in the static, glowing where we stand

Nothing but the current passing hand to hand

Embers in the static, warm and out of reach

Close enough to burn but we don't breach

Verse

Strobe bleeds gold through the open door

Your collar catches sparks from the floor

Coal goes dim, you blow it back alive

Static in the air where our palms collide

Pre-Chorus

Is it the heat or the space we're saving

Does the glow count as touch when it's staying

Chorus

Embers in the static, glowing where we stand

Nothing but the current passing hand to hand

Embers in the static, warm and out of reach

Close enough to burn but we don't breach

Bridge

Maybe it's the same air we're sharing

Maybe that's enough, this slow wearing

No skin on skin, just smoke and glow

Some fires don't need to be lit to show

Chorus

Embers in the static, glowing where we stand

Nothing but the current passing hand to hand

Embers in the static, warm and out of reach

Close enough to burn but we don't breach
