A melody on the radio Familiar beat, a simple flow It’s sweet and clean, a 4/4 time But in my head, a different chime
I see the bones, the shape, the hook I wanna tear a page from a different book Take the polished pop, and break the rules Hand me the rosin, plug in the tools

Oh, give me the fire, give me the sound When the horsehair bow comes crashing down Give me a riff on a six-string wire And a cello line to take it higher We’re breaking the mold, it’s rearranged The DNA of pop has changed From elegant to electric, we’ve come undone Tonight the song is being Re:Strung

The verse begins, a violin cries A sweet lament beneath the synthesized highs Then the bass kicks in, the cello groans A deep vibration in my bones It’s not just rock, it’s not baroque It’s every rule we ever broke The purists hate it, they stop and stare But they can’t deny the electric air

Oh, give me the fire, give me the sound When the horsehair bow comes crashing down Give me a riff on a six-string wire And a cello line to take it higher We’re breaking the mold, it’s rearranged The DNA of pop has changed From elegant to electric, we’ve come undone Tonight the song is being Re:Strung

A counter-melody, a harmony From two worlds that weren't meant to be The velvet touch of classic strings Against the feedback that the amplifier brings It’s dissonance, it’s overdrive It’s the most beautiful noise alive A new creation, born from the old A story waiting to be told

Oh, give me the fire, give me the sound When the horsehair bow comes crashing down Give me a riff on a six-string wire And a cello line to take it higher We’re breaking the mold, it’s rearranged The DNA of pop has changed From elegant to electric, we’ve come undone Tonight the song is being Re:Strung

Re:Strung... Yeah, we’re re-strung The old is new, the new's begun Re:Strung... Just listen to it run The pop song’s been re-strung.
