(Verse 1)
I lit a match on a payphone night
Left my name in a motel drawer
The mirror blinked in a broken frame
Like it knew what I was running for
Streetlight shimmer on the vinyl seat
Radio stuck on “almost clear”
I drove past every answer
With a window full of fear
⸻
(Pre-Chorus)
They said time was a record
I must’ve skipped the track
Now I’m chasing down a memory
That ain’t coming back
⸻
(Chorus)
Static on the wire, I’m still talking
To a voice that ain’t been there
Smoke in my lungs, but I’m walking
Like I don’t even care
Yeah—like I don’t even care
⸻
(Verse 2)
Found a note in a denim coat
No name, just a crooked line
It said “go where the thunder sleeps”
So I crossed the borderline
The wind was dressed in silver
The sky hung like a screen
I saw my own reflection
In a song I’d never seen
⸻
(Bridge)
⸻
(Chorus)
Static on the wire, I’m still talking
To a voice that ain’t been there
Smoke in my lungs, but I’m walking
Like I don’t even care
⸻
(Break)
⸻
(Final Chorus)
Static on the wire, I’m still talking
To a voice that ain’t been there
Smoke in my lungs, but I’m walking
Like I don’t even care
Yeah—like I don’t even care
(End)
