Catch the Kick Before It Falls

Verse

Sweat on the collarbone, rhythm in my spine

Kick drops low where the high hat climbs

Heels find the floor like it's holding fire

Bassline climbing higher than a wire

Two hands up and the ceiling shakes

Spine is bending for the groove that breaks

Salt on the neck from the room below

Every kick drum pulling me in slow

Pre-Chorus

Feel the timber cracking under my feet

Can't tell my name from the beat tonight

Floor is breathing, it's catching my breath

Kick comes falling and I let go of death

Chorus

Catch the kick before it falls away

Let the drum hit where the daylight stays

Skin on the bassline, we don't run

This is the drop that has just begun

Verse 2

Shoulders loose like they're floating free

Shaker rattling where my hips used to be

Palm trees painted green on the wall

Floor keeps pulling till I lose control at all

Marimba ringing where the one-two hits

Bass in my stomach, I forget what it's to sit

Kick drops deeper than I ever knew

This is the only thing that gets me through

Pre-Chorus

Feel the timber cracking under my feet

Can't tell my name from the beat tonight

Floor is breathing, it's catching my breath

Kick comes falling and I let go of death

Chorus

Catch the kick before it falls away

Let the drum hit where the daylight stays

Skin on the bassline, we don't run

This is the drop that has just begun

Bridge

No more names in this room tonight

Just hands up catching light, catching light

Log drum knocking at the door of my chest

Every beat is a breath I can't forget

Chorus

Catch the kick before it falls away

Let the drum hit where the daylight stays

Skin on the bassline, we don't run

This is the drop that has just begun
