There's a living static,

There's a living static,
Static that exists between everyone,
Everyone can feel the tension,
Tension that creates friction,
Friction that creates static,

Static created by conflicting moods,
Moods ruled by sharp personality,
Personality,matching up individuals,
Individuals clinging together like static,

Static, prickling our skin,
Skin brushing and anger rising,
Rising forces as numbers are increasing,
Increasing velocity and speed,
Speed feeding off the energy of static,

Static, frantic, shocking,
Shocking and gently teasing,
Teasing dark emotions out human shells,
Shells and bulletcases falling,
Falling down into the darkness,
Darkness unlit by static
