Wound Up In The Bassline (Version 2)

Verse

Heel to toe, the floorboards creak

Bassline coiling round my feet

Shuffle steps, a stitch, a seam

Wound up tighter with every skip

Snare's a key turned in my spine

Two-step ticking, out of time

Hips don't ask, they just obey

Every wind-up got its way

Pre-Chorus

How far can a spring get pulled

Before the wire finally spools

Who's the hand that's turning me

Or is it just the melody

Chorus

Wound up in the bassline, wound up tight

Coiled in the low end, all through the night

Turn me, turn me, let the tension spin

Wound up in the bassline, let me all the way in

Verse

Kick drum clicks it round again

Another notch beneath my skin

Garage skank pulling at my chest

Can't stand still, can't catch my breath

Rewind hits, the room leans in

Everybody's wound up, skin to skin

Same four bars, same aching pull

Wind me up until I'm full

Pre-Chorus

How far can a spring get pulled

Before the wire finally spools

Who's the hand that's turning me

Or is it just the melody

Chorus

Wound up in the bassline, wound up tight

Coiled in the low end, all through the night

Turn me, turn me, let the tension spin

Wound up in the bassline, let me all the way in

Bridge

Let it go, let it go

Watch the spring unwind so slow

Every twist I held on tight

Falling loose into the light

Not undone, just set free

Still the bassline's turning me

Chorus

Wound up in the bassline, wound up tight

Coiled in the low end, all through the night

Turn me, turn me, let the tension spin

Wound up in the bassline, let me all the way in
