Meet me in the valley
See me pass on the street
You'll find me in the garden
Trampled flowers 'neath my feet

The oceans'll seethe
And have no reprieve
For the weak
And the damned
The creatures of the sea
Will make homes
Of the bones
That drift endlessly
(As far as the eye can see)

Meet me in the valley
See me pass on the street
You'll find me in the garden
Trampled flowers 'neath my feet

The mountains sink into the earth
And amidst the crumbling dirt
The stragglers clutch their young
As if there's something to be done

Or will it be just
Just this
Just
White noise, white light in the deep

Will they record
The descending of the hoarde
With a black box that contains
The echoes, the shouts, the strains
Of the last

Or will it be just
Just this
Just
White noise, white light in the deep

Meet me in the valley
See me pass on the street
You'll find me in the garden
Trampled flowers 'neath my feet
You've heard the stories of me
You know what I can do
I take the ember's of man's anger
And there's nothing I can't spin them into
You hear me whisper to you
I see you recognize my face
A familiar pulse
Calling out from the empty spaces
Meet me in the valley

I know you’re smart
You spin me round like a knot
You know the pieces, pieces of my heart
Sometimes it’s fun, you pull my strings one by one
Until you get me, get me onto one

Lately I’ve been thinking if you wanna get tough
Then let’s play rough
Lately I’ve been thinking if you wanna get tough
Then let’s play rough
I don’t need you, giving it straight to me, giving it straight to me
You’re just gonna get knocked back
I don’t need you
Telling me how to be, telling me how to be
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back

Chorus:
Just noise, white noise
I’m hearing static, you’re like an automatic
You just wanna keep me on repeat and hear me crying
Just noise, white noise
Just noise, white noise
I’m hearing static, you’re like an automatic
You just wanna keep me on repeat and hear me crying

Only you can look at me the way you do
You always tint me, tint me black and blue
Such a shame, you frame me with such disdain
You got me washed out, washed out, colour drained

Lately I’ve been thinking if you wanna get tough
Then let’s play rough
Lately I’ve been thinking if you wanna get tough
Then let’s play rough
I don’t need you, giving it straight to me, giving it straight to me
You’re just gonna get my back
I don’t need you
Telling me how to be, telling me how to be
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Just gonna get my back
Back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back

Back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back
Back, back, back, back
Back, back

Chorus:
Just noise, white noise
I’m hearing static, you’re like an automatic
You just wanna keep me on repeat and hear me crying
Just noise, white noise
Just noise, white noise
I’m hearing static, you’re like an automatic
You just wanna keep me on reṗeat and hear me crying

All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)
All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)

If looks could kill, I'd be in trouble right now
Time stands still when you're around
I gave you all my time and you gave me all your lies
And you've just come around to say goodbye

Now here we stand with our hearts in our hands
Squeezing out all the lies
All that I have, is a message unclear
What else is there to decide?

All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)
All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)

White noise

You promised me your soul
But then left me in the cold
No warning and without a reason

You're placing yourself in a world of mistrust
Making excuses – it's not you, it's us
How can something unspoken seem so loud

And now all that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)
All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)

The operator comes on the line
Said 'hurry up man, 'cause you ain't got much time'

White noise, white noise

All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise
All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise

White noise

White noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)

All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)

All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)

All that I'm hearing from you, is white noise (white noise)
White noise (white noise)

All that I'm hearing from you...

Nails on the chalkboard
I dream and then
I see your face again
Words you were singing
Years ago
It feels like yesterday

But I'm coming around
I can only get to sleep to the sound of white noise
Can you hear me through the static
White noise
Put your plane on automatic

Late in the evening
I'm out again
Looking for a friend
Lost in the music
And then again
I hear your voice again

Five hundred watts
Ain't no wonder that my ears are shot with the sound of white noise
Can you hear me through the static
White noise
Put your plane on automatic

Nails on the chalkboard
I dream and then
I see your face again
Words you were singing
Years ago
It feels like yesterday

And I'm coming around
I can only get to sleep to the sound of white noise
Can you hear me through the static
White noise
Put your plane on automatic (Can you hear me)
White noise
Can you hear me through the static
White noise
Put my mind on automatic (Can you hear me)
White noise
White noise
White noise
White noise

All the people that you know, they say you're ready to break down
All the people that you know, they say you're ready to fall
I hope you know that you are better than you think you are
I hope you know you that you will never really try
I hope you know you that you are never unknown
You got a good friend on the inside
Whoa-oh
I just want to be there when you need to find your feet on the solid ground
Whoa-oh
I just want to catch you when you fall down
(When you fall down)

All the people that you know say you live in white noise
Yeah, all the people that you know they say you're living in hell
They don't know anything
I hope that you know that you are better than they say you are
I have to say that you are stronger than you know
I have to say that you are smart enough to handle any stunt anyone could pull
Whoa-oh
I just want to be there when you need to find your feet on the solid ground
Whoa-oh
I just want to catch you when you fall down
Catch you when you fall down
Catch you when you fall down
Catch you when you fall down
I want to catch you when you fall down
When you fall down

All the people that you know, say you're ready to break down
All the people that you know, say you're ready to fall
I have to say that you are better than they think you are
Have to say that you are better than them all
Have to tell you that you never need the answer
When you need someone to call
Whoa-oh
I just want to be there when you need a hand to help you turn it all around
Whoa-oh
I just need to be there when you need to come down
Woah-oh
I just want to be there when you need to find your feet on the solid ground
Whoa-oh
I just want to catch you when you fall down
Catch you when you fall down
Catch you when you fall down
I want to catch you when you fall down

Grand Old Opry music show playin' on my radio
Fiddle and a steel guitar in some little redneck bar
Parkin' lot full of four wheel drives
You won't hear no hip hop jive
Cowgirls lookin' for cowboys
Two-step to that ol' white noise

I'm talkin' 'bout white noise comin' from the white boys
I can't keep my cowboy boots from stompin'
To that white noise comin' from the white boys
Take me where those honky's are a-tonkin'

When the evenin' sun goes down crusin' through our little town
Country girls and country boys showin' off hillbilly toys

Talkin' 'bout white noise comin' from the white boys
I can't keep my cowboy boots from stompin'
To that white noise comin' from the white boys
Take me where those honky's are a-tonkin'

[Instrumental]

Tractor pulls and rodeos, county fairs and bluegrass shows
It ain't a thing 'bout black and white
It's Johnny Cash and Charley Pride

It what I call white noise comin' from the real mccoys
I can't keep my cowboy boots from stompin'
To that white noise comin' from the real mccoys
Take me where those honky's are a-tonkin'
Take me where those honky's are a-tonkin'
And take me where those honky's are a-tonkin'

Rastus was a nigger. Thug mugger junkie.
Black golly gob. Big horny monkey.
Pimp pusher coon. Grinning piccaninnies.
Send him home soon. Back to the trees.

Black wogs. Black wogs. Face don't fit.
Black wogs. Black wogs. Ain't no Brit.

Ahmed is a Paki. Curry coffee queer.
Ten to a bed. Flocking over here.
Tax-sponging canker. Smelly thieving kids.
Ponce greasy wanker. Worse than the yids.

Brown wogs. Brown wogs. Face don't fit.
Brown wogs. Brown wogs. Ain't no Brit.

Stick together we'll be al'w'ight me and you
The only colours we need are red, right and blue.

Paddy is a moron. Spud thick Mick.
Breeds like a rabbit. Thinks with his pick.
Anything floors him if he can't fight or drink it.
Round them up in Ulster. Tow it out and sink it.

Green wogs. Green wogs. Our face don't fit.
Green wogs. Green wogs. We ain't no Brit.

If the victim ain't a soldier why should we care?
Irish bodies don't count. Life's cheaper over there.

Green wogs. Green wogs. Face don't fit.
Green wogs. Green wogs. We ain't no Brit.
Green Wogs. Green wogs. Get 'em boys.
Green wogs. Green wogs. Turn up the white noise.
