Bones Know the Beat (वर्ज़न 2)

Intro

Marrow hums before my mind wakes

Spine already counting the four

Verse

Footbridge shaking with the midnight train

Steel rail singing through my shoes

Grandfather's rhythm in my rib cage

Older than the news

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb up from my heel bone

Feel it settle in my jaw

Blood remembers what the drum said

Long before the law

Chorus

Bones know the beat

Bones know the beat

Before my head can catch it

Bones know the beat

Verse

Platform light flickers amber, blue

Township hymn under diesel hum

My hips move slow like they were taught by

Someone I become

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb up from my heel bone

Feel it settle in my jaw

Blood remembers what the drum said

Long before the law

Chorus

Bones know the beat

Bones know the beat

Before my head can catch it

Bones know the beat

Bridge

Not a memory, it's marrow

Not a story, it's the ground

Every ancestor still walking

In the way my hips turn round

Chorus

Bones know the beat

Bones know the beat

Before my head can catch it

Bones know the beat

Outro

Spine still counting the four

Long after the train is gone
