Noir Static
Streetlight flickers like a warning on the glass
You text one word,
then let the little signal pass My screen stays blue,
the room stays black
I hear your silence in the kick drum crack
No map,
no trace
Just your name erased
Run it back, run it back,
then let it fall Your voice in the static,
barely there at all Run it back,
run it back, the wires go cold I keep one spark where
the night takes hold
The elevator stops between two floors A ghost of your laugh slips
under the door
I count the seconds by the blinking red
The words we never sent still circle my head
No map,
no trace
Just your name erased
Run it back, run it back,
then let it fall Your voice in the static,
barely there at all Run it back,
run it back, the wires go cold I keep one spark where
the night takes hold
Cut the signal
Leave the light on
I can hear you
When the noise is gone
Run it back, run it back,
then let it fall Your voice in the static,
barely there at all Run it back,
run it back, the wires go cold I keep one spark where
the night takes hold
One spark
Still awake
