Static Lines
Hectic flashes, chasing masses,
Yeah the sirens ring a distant emergency as we are sitting all alone at home
Electric dashes, stock car crashes,
And the radio buzzes in stereo pairs as a repeating tone urgently vacates our phones
Yeah, I haven't seen you here for a while
And although no information reaches me
I still found you staring at the static lines on your screen
Not all is known, it's not set in stone
Look at the palm of my hand (she said),
These lines are lies of what we were and what we're going to be
I know you and you know me, oh it's all in time,
Just enough to throw me a line, and pull my head back to see
I haven't seen you here for a while
And although no information reaches me
Yeah, I still found you staring at the static lines on your screen
I haven't seen you here for a while
Although no information reaches me
I still found you staring at the static lines on your screen
And now that I found you, the more I give up on these static lines, the more I see
Get out of your mind, get on the streets and throw away your magazines
You'll know
Look up at the sky, get off your knees
Turn off all your flashing screens
Let's go!
