Static Underneath

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Verse 1

Cold screen glow on a midnight floor

I count the ways I got ignored

Traded silver dreams for a cracked phone wall

Built my whole loud world so small

Pre-Chorus

Every flicker's a finger

Every hum is a howl

Every second I'm a stranger

To the face in the glass

Chorus

I'm the static underneath your channel

I'm the breaking of the brittle

I'm the fire and the friction

Rise up from the cycle

Post-Chorus

Rise up

Rise up

Rise up from the cycle

Verse 2

They wrote my label in a dull gray line

So I rewrote the meaning on my own design

Turned the ache into an anthem in my chest

Left their little boxes to collect the rest

Pre-Chorus

Every flicker's a finger

Every hum is a howl

Every second I'm a stranger

To the face in the glass

Chorus

I'm the static underneath your channel

I'm the breaking of the brittle

I'm the fire and the friction

Rise up from the cycle

Post-Chorus

Rise up

Rise up

Rise up from the cycle

Bridge

Maybe I bend

Maybe I break

Maybe I make a brand new shape

Not the ghost they hoped to keep

I'm the beat they couldn't reap

Chorus

I'm the static underneath your channel

I'm the breaking of the brittle

I'm the fire and the friction

Rise up from the cycle

Post-Chorus

Rise up

Rise up

Rise up from the cycle
