Static in the Photograph

Songtekst

[Verse 1] You were framed in summer air Crooked smile Chipped blue chair Now I hold a yellowed print Edges bent where your name went [Chorus] You’re a static in the photograph Colors bleeding Peeling back I can’t touch you Can’t rewind You’re a fading memory in my mind You’re a flicker on a broken screen Here Then gone Then in between I keep staring Losing track Just a static in the photograph [Verse 2] Found your sweater in a box Smelled the rain Heard distant talk But your voice is out of tune Like a song that skips too soon [Pre-Chorus] Was it me that let it blur? Or did time erase the words? I chase echoes down the hall Watch them scatter Watch them fall [Chorus] You’re a static in the photograph Colors bleeding Peeling back I can’t touch you Can’t rewind You’re a fading memory in my mind You’re a flicker on a broken screen Here Then gone Then in between I keep staring Losing track Just a static in the photograph [Bridge] [Beat drops to bass and drums] Names and faces Switching places Every day You’re less in focus Every street We used to meet Feels like someone else’s moment (someone else’s moment) [Chorus] You’re a static in the photograph Colors bleeding Peeling back I can’t touch you Can’t rewind You’re a fading memory in my mind You’re a flicker on a broken screen Here Then gone Then in between I keep staring Losing track Just a static in the photograph
