Static Lyrics

Follow what they said, not what they did

Lessons learned how not to be

The pattern of chaos ends with me

I studied the science of silence

Sophisticated self-reliance

Side stepped all the violence

Preservation through defiance

They inspired this noise and static

Wholeheartedly direct and emphatic

Never understood my kith and kin and the melodrama they wallowed in

Narcissistic ego trips writhing with lies

Stoic indifference on the other side

I give to you this noise and static

Think what you will, it's automatic

Diametrically opposed with the dogmatic fanatics

I packed them away up in the attic

Their short fuse anger derangement and their pessimistic cynicism buried under the basement

I try not to judge or bear a grudge

Here's hoping that you know what's up

But if you think this is about you, look in the mirror

You know it's true

I play for you this fuzz and static

Hear it now, it's magic

Have a listen to the buzzing sound as I break it down

I hope this helps to clear things up and set the record straight

For real now, make no mistake

I may have forgiven, but I have not forgotten

Some are gone for good, some are just plain rotten

Listen to the static, psychosomatic

Listen to the static, idiosyncratic
