Static Blood

Static in my bloodstream, wired from the cradle. Raised on broken signals and a crooked fable. City's heartbeat syncs with the sirens' cries. Concrete dreams buried where the silence lies. Neon halos 'round the heads of thieves. Truth's a currency no one believes. Every streetlight hums like a ghost in chains, And the shadows speak louder than the blood in My veins. Static blood in a world that's blind. Every step is a war in my fractured mind. Can't break free, so I bend the rules. In a kingdom of liars, I'm the king of fools. Yeah. Breathing in smoke from a thousand sins. Every prayer here drowns before it begins. Hope's a glitch on a dying screen. Flickers out fast in the space between. I've seen angels dealing rusted knives, And devils bless the crooked lives. Every promise tastes like ash and chrome, And every open road leads me back to home. Static blood in a world that's blind. Every step is a war in my fractured mind. Can't break free, so I bend the rules. In a kingdom of liars, I'm the king of fools. I've been lost, I've been sold, I've been bought in chains, But the fire in my chest still knows my Name. If the world won't change, then I'll light The spark. Turn the static into thunder in the Endless dark. Static blood in a world that's blind. Every step is a war in my fractured mind. Can't break free, so I bend the rules. In a kingdom of liars, I'm the king of fools. Static in my veins, I was born to Fight. Through the noise, through the dark, I will claim the night. Oh.
