Only Static In My Head

Nocturnal Pop Dark Dreamwave Modern Synthpop Synthpop Noir

I wrote "Only Static In My Head" around the feeling of waking up already behind. It is about the small erosion that happens when routine starts to take over your sense of self. The song sits in that fog between getting through the day and wondering where the rest of your life went. The static is not some dramatic breakdown. It is the quiet noise that keeps following you through work, sleep, lists, alarms, and all the things you were supposed to finish.

Intro

Instrumental

Verse 1

  1. The screen lights up before I do
  2. Blue light across the ceiling
  3. I dress, I pour, I show up clean
  4. But lose myself mid-hall
  5. (only static in my head)
  6. Lost in the frequency

Pre-Chorus

  1. I write it down
  2. Cross nothing off
  3. The hours move
  4. The signal's lost

Chorus

  1. I wake into the noise
  2. Already losing ground
  3. The world drifts out of focus
  4. Only static in my head
  5. (only static)

Post-Chorus

  1. (only static in my head)
  2. (only static in my head)

Verse 2

  1. The same light through the blinds
  2. Same list, a different day
  3. I move the alarm an hour back
  4. Still can't find the way
  5. (only static in my head)
  6. Drifting out of phase

Pre-Chorus

  1. I write it down
  2. Cross nothing off
  3. The hours move
  4. The signal's lost

Chorus

  1. I wake into the noise
  2. Already losing ground
  3. The world drifts out of focus
  4. Only static in my head
  5. (only static)

Post-Chorus

  1. (only static in my head)
  2. (only static in my head)

Bridge

  1. I've known this sound
  2. Before I had a name for it
  3. Only static in my head
  4. The hum beneath everything
  5. Never new
  6. Always mine

Final Chorus

  1. I wake into the noise
  2. Already losing ground
  3. The world drifts out of focus
  4. ONLY STATIC IN MY HEAD
  5. (only static in my head)
  6. Only static

Outro

  1. (only static in my head)
  2. (only static in my head)
  3. Only static in my head

I wake into the noise Already losing ground The world drifts out of focus Only static in my head
