On The Last Day - Meaning in the static lyrics

rate me

Strings of numbers in the black.

Solutions false to send me back.

If only I could only do the math. (there is no escape)

Tell me secrets with white noise.

If I could single out a voice maybe the past would all make sense. (there is no meaning)

(Bridge)A pattern there, a sequence here,

there's something that I lack.

The answer's there, but the end is near,

and there's no turning back.

(Chorus)There's meaning in the static

and I need to believe that if there's an end,

I'm planning my escape.

Turn the volume up to ten.

The signal's there it's just hiding.

Beware the monsters at the end. (there is no escape)

I'll place this purpose in the void.

Something to block out the white noise.

Quick now, my time is running out. (There is no meaning)

They've caught my scent, they're on my heels, this city's closing in.

I'm leaving town, I'm reaching out, but all I grasp is air.

(Chorus)

I hear voices in the darkness. (I hear voices)

Waiting, they're watching, and telling me lies. They don't answer now.

I hear voices...
