Dust in the Current (Version 2)

Intro

Static hums through the skin

Verse 1

Wet rail to my wrist, metal in the dark

Grit on my teeth from the kick before it starts

Dust rises off the floor where I've been standing

One breath turns to four and then to nothing

Pre-Chorus

Current moves beneath my ribs again

Fingers find the seam where static meets my spine

This is how we lose our weight in time

Let go of every hour that's left behind

Chorus

Dust in the current, turning silver in the dark

Dust in the current, I won't start

Iron wire to iron wire through the chest and back

Static holds me till the lights turn green again at last

Dust in the current

Turns my name into a single grain of time

Nothing left but static humming underneath

Verse 2

Cold tile against my collarbone

Shadows move on the wall that I've known since morning

Every step pulls out the weight behind it down

One hour turns to none before the lights come up around

Pre-Chorus

Current moves beneath my ribs again

Fingers find the seam where static meets my spine

This is how we lose our weight in time

Let go of every hour that's left behind

Chorus

Dust in the current, turning silver in the dark

Dust in the current, I won't start

Iron wire to iron wire through the chest and back

Static holds me till the lights turn green again at last

Dust in the current

Turns my name into a single grain of time

Nothing left but static humming underneath

Bridge

No clock

No face

Just the hum beneath the concrete floor

This is where we lose our weight for good

Chorus

Dust in the current, turning silver in the dark

Dust in the current, I won't start

Iron wire to iron wire through the chest and back

Static holds me till the lights turn green again at last

Dust in the current

Turns my name into a single grain of time

Nothing left but static humming underneath

Outro

Hold

Until

Green
