"Static & Lightning" lyrics

"Static & Lightning"

Voice in my head telling me that
I can't go forward and I can't go back
So I sit down and pray, but I know I can't change
Choices I've made and the baggage I've packed
All these warning signs
I've played rewind

Oh, and I said it's fine
But, Jesus, He knows that I'm lying

Voice in the silence
It's blinding
There's one thing I can't seem to find
Oh, it's the static and lightning
From the spark that we never did light
Oh Lord, I'm trying to see past my eyelids
To a time when things weren't moving so fast
Called out my name, carve out my grave
The simple things, they never last
No, they never last

Give me Your love, show me Your grace
Tell me it isn't too late
And open my eyes
Banish the violence
Come wrap me inside Your embrace

Oh, and I said it's fine
But, Jesus, He knows that I'm lying

Voice in the silence
It's blinding
There's one thing I can't seem to find
Oh, it's the static and lightning
From the spark that we never did light
Oh Lord, I'm trying to see past my eyelids
To a time when things weren't moving so fast
Called out my name, carve out my grave
The simple things, they never last
No, they never last
Oh, oh, oh

Maybe it's cynical, maybe it's right
Maybe these chemicals blurring the line
And if I'm just cynical, right place, wrong time
I felt invincible, but now that I'm trying
Now I can see what it's like

Voice in the silence
It's blinding
There's one thing I can't seem to find
Oh, it's the static and lightning
From the spark that we never did light
Oh Lord, I'm trying to see past my eyelids
To a time when things weren't moving so fast
Called out my name, carve out my grave
The simple things, they never last
No, they never last
