Static Crown

Verse 1 I found a note inside the wall It didn’t say my name Just a crooked little drawing Of a moth inside a flame The carpet smells like thunder The ceiling starts to bend I made a deal with silence Now silence wants a friend Pre-Chorus And I don’t know What I’m supposed to be A broken light Or electricity Chorus Hey, I’m wearing my static crown Laughing while the room falls down I don’t need a reason now I don’t need a reason Hey, I’m sleeping through the sound Dig me up and turn me round I don’t need a reason now I don’t need a reason Verse 2 There’s a mirror in the kitchen With a face I almost trust It says, “You’re only tired” Then it fades into the dust The radio is coughing Some forgotten teenage song Everybody’s waiting But the ending came out wrong Pre-Chorus And I don’t know What I’m supposed to say A plastic heart In a paper parade Chorus Hey, I’m wearing my static crown Laughing while the room falls down I don’t need a reason now I don’t need a reason Hey, I’m sleeping through the sound Dig me up and turn me round I don’t need a reason now I don’t need a reason Bridge Soft hands, cold teeth Low sky underneath Fake smile, real bruise No win, no lose Final Chorus Hey, I’m wearing my static crown Laughing while the room falls down I don’t need a reason now I don’t need a reason Hey, I’m sinking, don’t look down Paint my name across this town I don’t need a reason now I don’t need a reason Outro Static crown Static crown Turn it up Then burn it down
