Description

Static on the Glass

[Verse]

I am a ghost in a wool coat watching you buy lemons

Stupid lemons

You trip on the curb and my heart does a backflip

A dirty backflip

I count the freckles on your neck like stars in a gutter

I never mutter a word

[Prechorus]

Why am I a stone

Just a heavy stone

[Chorus]

Hello is a mountain I cannot climb

Hello is a fever that rots my mind

Is it love or a crime

To be the shadow walking three steps behind

The shadow

Just the shadow

[Verse 2]

Your bicycle tires hiss like a snake on the wet pavement

Cold pavement

I hide behind a mailbox because I am a coward

A golden coward

Do you smell the rain on my skin or just the city

It is a pity I stay hidden

[Bridge]

What if I waved my hand

What if I screamed your name across the sand

Would you run

Or would you stand

I am a freak in a beautiful land

[Chorus]

Hello is a mountain I cannot climb

Hello is a fever that rots my mind

Is it love or a crime

To be the shadow walking three steps behind

The shadow

Just the shadow
