Where the rhythm leads we go (version 2)

Verse 1

Charcoal breathing in the corner clay

Bass drum shaking all the words away

Your heel resting on the painted stone

We do not need to speak to be alone

Two shoulders turning in the amber light

Heavy pulse running through the night

Pre-Chorus

Lift your chin now

Catch the drift now

Feel the heat rise

Watch the low skies

Chorus

Smoke signals rising slow

Where the rhythm leads we go

No speaking, only sway

Wash the restless thoughts away

Smoke signals rising slow

Here is everything we know

Verse 2

Ash falling quiet on the terra rim

Log drum humming where the edges dim

Your palm settles on my damp left sleeve

Movement is the only thing we breathe

Ribs keeping time with the shaker count

Nothing left to argue or announce

Pre-Chorus

Lift your chin now

Catch the drift now

Feel the heat rise

Watch the low skies

Chorus

Smoke signals rising slow

Where the rhythm leads we go

No speaking, only sway

Wash the restless thoughts away

Smoke signals rising slow

Here is everything we know

Bridge

Cinder to ember, skin against skin

This is where the quiet world begins

Floor stays steady while the rafters spin

Let the dark hold what we keep within

Chorus

Smoke signals rising slow

Where the rhythm leads we go

No speaking, only sway

Wash the restless thoughts away

Smoke signals rising slow

Here is everything we know
