Jukebox The Ghost - Static to the Heart lyrics

He was struck by static to the heart
Shot by an appendage from
A television tube and
Knowing what it meant to
Be showered with sound
He became a believer, he became a believer

And now he's slamming down chords
And leadin' the crowd, ten thousand strong
They're shouting in unison
Shouting in unison

And they're burning their draft cards
Desecrating photographs
Burnt through the heart by
Static through the heart, static
Through the heart, static through the
A man crouches on the street
With static in his eyes
And takes it as a sign from the gods up above
To shout from the rooftops and
Write letters to the government
He's writing revelations for the showdown

And now he's slamming down chords
And leading a crowd ten thousand strong
They're shouting in unison
Shouting in unison:

"Mom and dad, wake wake
Wake from your slumbers because
We're gonna burn this
Motherfucker down because
Sometimes we burn and steal and
Rape and kill and sacrifice
Just to remind ourselves that
We're still alive"

Static through the heart, static
Through the heart, static through the

This is not a test, this is the real thing
This is not a test, this is the real thing
This is not a test, this is the real thing
This is not a test, this not a test
This is the real thing
This is not a test, this not a test
This is the real thing

Mom and dad, wake wake
Wake from your slumbers because
We're gonna burn this
Motherfucker down because
Sometimes we burn and steal and
Rape and kill and sacrifice
Just to remind ourselves that
We're still alive
