Static Will Prevail
In the beginning there was music still worth hearing
Back when there were stories left to tell
These days the playlists have grown weary
These days even radio is for sale
And there were days when the radios would echo through the streets
But now the station’s set to silence and static will prevail
Now in stereo static reigns
Crashing down in tired waves
Flood the signal/Disconnect
FM flaunts forgotten names
And bandswidth nothing left to play
Cut the signal/Intercept
These frequencies fade
Static will prevail
As these mediums change
Static will prevail
Dollar signs bookend your $ong$
Yet still your music plays along
Empty words in slanted rhyme
And melodies over 1-4-5
Radioactivity has dissipated
The formula failed
Radioactivity has dissipated
Now static will prevail
