Static in the Speakers (Version 2)

Verse 1 – Kellan Vance - male lead

Fingers on the speaker grille where you used to sit

Static in the wire is all that I've got left of it

The amp hums like a ghost with nothing better to do

Same four chords I taught you, still waiting for you

Pre-Chorus – Kellan Vance - male lead

Can we rewind this tape before it cuts out completely?

Is there a way to turn this up loud enough that you'll hear me?

Tell me which take feels most like the real one, then start speaking

Chorus – Kell Vandce - dual, soaring, dreamy harmonies

Static in the speakers is where I found you

A hum beneath the surface that only we knew

I'm playing this same old record round and round again

Hoping the radio gods will bring your voice back through the grain

Verse 2 – Kell Vandce - female lead

Dusty needle scratching out a single, fading line

This is where I learn to hear what you were trying to say in time

Every hiss is a heartbeat, counting down till we meet again

This tape won't stop spinning till your voice comes back through the static and the pain

Pre-Chorus – Kell Vandce - dual lead

Can we turn it up loud enough that you'll come back too?

Is there a way to bend this radio signal into something new?

Which take holds the part where I'm still standing on your side of town

Chorus – Kell Vandce - dual, soaring, dreamy harmonies

Static in the speakers is where I found you

A hum beneath the surface that only we knew

I'm playing this same old record round and round again

Hoping the radio gods will bring your voice back through the grain

Bridge – Kellan Vance - male lead

Maybe it's not just static, maybe it's just us still

Maybe every crackle is a line of light pulling you near, pulling me till I find where we left off and I can hear what you're trying to say

Chorus – Kell Vandce - dual, soaring, dreamy harmonies

Static in the speakers is where I found you

A hum beneath the surface that only we knew

I'm playing this same old record round and round again

Hoping the radio gods will bring your voice back through the grain
