Static in My Head by Vexa Moon
Static in My Head
Verse 1
Woke up with a siren humming in my brain,
Every little thought tapping Morse-code pain.
Coffee’s cold, but my pulse is loud,
Drowning in a room that’s way too proud.
Counting every word that I never said,
Replaying last night like a looped VHS.
Silence screams when I’m alone in bed,
There’s nothing on the TV but static in my head.
Pre-Chorus
I try to breathe, but the air feels thin,
Every “what if” crawling under my skin.
Chorus
There’s static in my head, can’t change the station,
Every fear’s broadcasting without moderation.
I turn it down, but it comes back instead,
White noise dancing in the things I said.
Yeah, static in my head, all night, no rest,
Tangled wires wrapped around my chest.
I’m wide awake in a house that’s dead,
Just me and the buzz of static in my head.
(Shut it off, shut it off)
Verse 2
Mirror talks back like it knows my name,
Points out the cracks, puts fuel on the flame.
Every smile feels carefully staged,
Every calm thought trapped in a cage.
My phone lights up — heart skips a beat,
Bad news trains running down every street.
I chase control but I’m always misled,
Running in circles with static in my head.
Pre-Chorus
They say “Relax, it’s all in your mind,”
If that was true, I’d be doing just fine.
Chorus
There’s static in my head, can’t change the station,
Every fear’s broadcasting without moderation.
I turn it down, but it comes back instead,
White noise dancing in the things I said.
Yeah, static in my head, all night, no rest,
Tangled wires wrapped around my chest.
I’m wide awake in a house that’s dead,
Just me and the buzz of static in my head.
(Shut it off, shut it off)
Bridge
If I could find the switch, I’d pull it slow,
Let one clear thought finally show.
Maybe peace is a frequency I haven’t met,
Buried somewhere in the chaos yet.
I’m not broken, just overheard,
Every emotion screaming to be heard.
(Whoa-oh — let me breathe)
Chorus
There’s static in my head, but I’m standing still,
Trying not to let it bend my will.
I turn it down, yeah, I fight instead,
Learning how to live with the words unsaid.
Yeah, static in my head, but I’m not dead,
Even through the noise, I’m hanging on a thread.
One clear signal waiting ahead,
Past all the buzz of static in my head.
(It fades, it fades)
Outro
When the night finally loosens its grip,
And the noise forgets my name for a bit,
I’ll find my calm, yeah, I’ll get there instead —
Till then, I live with the static in my head.
