Radio Static

Radio+Static

Empty thoughts and loud radio static

Used to be filled with Fleetwood Mac, Johnny Cash, and pop punk bands

It’s the noise that fuels nostalgia

Those heavy drums and guitar driven records  

Still make my heart yearn

Killed me with your charm Killed me with the chase

Blocked out the memories of my teenage craze

Tried new lovers tried a new taste

Melancholy lover you have me bewitched body and soul

Stolen words pride and prejudice

Be my modern day Elizabeth Bennet

We’ll blast out our ears with Dark Necessities, Otherside, Scar Tissue, and Californication  

Red Hot Chili Peppers will fill out our radios and you won’t have to feel alone

Numb and existing that’s who you are

I’ve torn other girls apart

Left their hearts in graveyards

Comparison was the reason it didn’t work

They couldn’t be the Gemini I fell for at sixteen, seventeen, and when I turn eighteen it’ll be the same thing
