Static
Live at the Evening Muse (2006)


Before static there was memory
Before memory came rain
Before rain there was the ocean
Before the ocean there was pain
Before pain there was the devil
Before the devil there was god
Before god there was static
It goes on and on and on

And I just want to fall in love

And after static there was reason
After reason then came noise
After noise there was a season
A springtime for the boys
And the boys they found their ladies
And the ladies loved their men
And they all created static
Again and again

And I just want to fall in love
I just want to fall in love

And my heart fills with treason
As it rains on the parade
I hear reason after reason
But my life just fades away
I will walk around in circles
Tread the earth ‘til I am found
Eat the static with a smile
‘Cause it never makes a sound

And I just want to fall in love
I just want to fall in love



Mike Garrigan on "Static":

So, one morning I woke up (this really happened), I woke up and I discovered the secret of the universe. And its actually really quite simple. I'm going to share it with you right now.
