The television's humming in an empty room
A rhythmic pulse of neon and impending doom
I'm wired to the ceiling, I'm plugged into the wall
Waiting for the signal, waiting for the fall
My heartbeat's out of sync with the clock on the shelf
I'm becoming a stranger to my own damn self

The frequency is rising, it's screaming in my ears
The sound of all the pressure, the sound of all the years
Can you feel the hum? Can you feel the heat?
The ghosts of the machine are dancing in the street

I've got static in the veins, I've got white noise in my head
Chasing every shadow, living on a thread
Break the connection, let the signal burn
To the point of no return
(Static in the veins)

The sky is pixelated, the stars are burning out
I'm screaming in a vacuum, I'm paralyzed by doubt
Every word I say is lost in the transmission
A ghost in the system, a soul in transition
Give me something real, give me something to hold
Before the circuit breaks and the fire grows cold

The frequency is rising, it's screaming in my ears
The sound of all the pressure, the sound of all the years
Can you feel the hum? Can you feel the heat?
The ghosts of the machine are dancing in the street

I've got static in the veins, I've got white noise in my head
Chasing every shadow, living on a thread
Break the connection, let the signal burn
To the point of no return
(Static in the veins)

Disconnect
Reconnect
I'm searching for a heartbeat in the silicon
Searching for a light before the power's gone
Let it all go

I've got static in the veins, I've got white noise in my head
Chasing every shadow, living on a thread
Break the connection, let the signal burn
To the point of no return

Static in the veins
The signal is lost
