Dead Air Signal

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Morning breaks in a glass box Screen glow on my face Your voice reads the weather Like a machine with taste Neon billboards blink my name On the crawl at the bottom We feed the ghost a headline Then we call it a problem [Pre-Chorus] They sold the future cheap In a plastic suit and tie Now every careful answer Got a dead look in its eye [Chorus] Dead air signal Say it again Dead air signal Where do we bend? Dead air signal Hands on the wire Dead air signal Burning higher [Verse 2] I hear the trendline coughing In the teeth of the night Kids got code in their pockets And a bruise for a light They want clean little miracles On a dirty old channel But the voice in the machine Sounds like a knife in a handle [Pre-Chorus] They sold the future cheap In a plastic suit and tie Now every careful answer Got a dead look in its eye [Chorus] Dead air signal Say it again Dead air signal Where do we bend? Dead air signal Hands on the wire Dead air signal Burning higher [Bridge] Take the mask off Let the truth hit hard Half the world is rented Half the world is scarred If the line goes hot Then let it scream I'm still made of flesh In a coded dream [Final Chorus] Dead air signal Say it again Dead air signal Where do we bend? Dead air signal Hands on the wire Dead air signal Burning higher Dead air signal I hear the roar Dead air signal Kick in the door
