{single-note syncopated guitar
riff, call-and-response phrasing, heavy drum groove fills,
tight bass, rests between lines}
Static on the wire,
waiting for the spark
(ah-ah) Leaving empty spaces burning in the dark {guitar answers after every
line, off-beat rhythmic accents} You run the pattern,
you trace the line (yeah) But you're just running out of time
{building tension, snare rolls,
guitars sustaining} Break the silence,
tear it clean away
We don't need the words they want to say
Let the fire fall,
let the structure break
How much pressure can one promise take?
{soaring belts, full dynamic power chords open up,
driving straight rhythm} Holding back the fury,
hiding in the groove
(mm-hmm) Watching all the pieces trying not to move
{syncopated
guitar riff returns, call-and-response dynamic} {expressive overdriven guitar solo expanding on
the verse riff motif,
fast pentatonic runs, chromatic licks,
driving bass and drums backing} Break the silence,
tear it clean away
We don't need the words they want to say
Let the fire fall,
let the structure break
How much pressure can one promise take?
{soaring belts, full dynamic power chords,
heavy driving outro beat} (yeah-yeah) {final
single-note syncopated guitar riff statement,
drums hit accents, abrupt final ring out}
