Heavy bass down below

Verse 1

Paraffin lamp on a wire overhead

Amber across the red brick and the thread

Your shoulder grazes mine in the dark

Log drum is rolling, the timber takes spark

Bare feet on stone where the river breeze blows

Nobody speaking, the quiet just grows

Pre-Chorus

Feel the wire sway

Take the steps away

Leave the words behind

Let the circle find

Chorus

Lanterna swinging slow

Heavy bass down below

Your skin against the glow

Lanterna swinging slow

Verse 2

Sweat on the collarbone, cooling in time

Dust on your ankles, your pace matching mine

Low end is breathing deep in the ground

Two shadows stretching where light isn't found

No one asks what the morning will bring

We let the iron and the rhythm just swing

Pre-Chorus

Feel the wire sway

Take the steps away

Leave the words behind

Let the circle find

Chorus

Lanterna swinging slow

Heavy bass down below

Your skin against the glow

Lanterna swinging slow

Bridge

Yellow arc on your chest

Warm wind does the rest

Hold the weight, let it lean

Nothing said, everything seen

Chorus

Lanterna swinging slow

Heavy bass down below

Your skin against the glow

Lanterna swinging slow
