Heavy wood vibrating all around

Verse 1

Planks cool down as the midnight clears

Log drum humming in the floorboards here

You lean back on the weathered pine

Heel drops heavy on the quarter line

No sweet talk on a night like this

Weight moves slow where the shadows shift

Pre-Chorus

Up through your ankles, up through your knees

Under the wire, under the trees

Press down your palms, don't make a sound

Chorus

Feel the timber shaking in the ground

Heavy wood vibrating all around

One slow breath, we don't make a sound

Feel the timber shaking in the ground

Verse 2

Resin sticking to the flat of your shoe

Rough-cut cedar that the heat passed through

Your hand rests open right across my chest

Counting four beats while the others rest

Dust between the cracks begins to jump

Every board rattling on the log drum thump

Pre-Chorus

Up through your ankles, up through your knees

Under the wire, under the trees

Press down your palms, don't make a sound

Chorus

Feel the timber shaking in the ground

Heavy wood vibrating all around

One slow breath, we don't make a sound

Feel the timber shaking in the ground

Bridge

The beam holds steady though the rafters lean

Nothing spoken, nothing in between

Just the dark wood flexing to the floor

We don't need a room, we don't need a door

Chorus

Feel the timber shaking in the ground

Heavy wood vibrating all around

One slow breath, we don't make a sound

Feel the timber shaking in the ground
