The static comes in slow
You can feel it grow
Our stream of conscience flows
Under the streets below

The rivers made of sound
Still running underground
Runs like a silent flood
We run as thick as blood

Can you hear it rise up from the ground'
You can't drown it out, can you hear it now'

THIS IS THE SOUND
OF A HEARTBEAT
THIS IS THE SOUND
FROM THE DISCONTENTED MOUTHS
OF A HAUNTED NATION
WE ARE THE VOICE OF BREAKING DOWN
CAN YOU HEAR ME'
THIS IS THE SOUND
OF THE DESPERATION BOUND
BY OUR OWN COLLISION
WE ARE THE VOICE OF BREAKING DOWN

The static comes alive
Beneath the broken skies
John Perkins said it right
'Love is the final fight' - yes it is

Let it rise above, rise above
There is no song louder than love
