Handrail Sway

Verse

Sticky floor, low ceiling light

Bassline moves the back of my spine

Someone's elbow, someone's smile

Lost my coat about an hour ago

Grip the rail just to steady my feet

Room keeps tilting to the same 2-step beat

Ice in my cup gone thin and clear

Don't know the hour, don't need to here

Pre-Chorus

Hands go up when the snare drops in

Floor tilts sideways, let it spin

Can't find my name, don't need it now

Just the rail and the sway, and the crowd somehow

Chorus

Handrail sway, handrail sway

Holding on but I'm floating away

Lights go blue then gold then grey

Handrail sway, handrail sway

Verse

Speaker's warm against my palm

Strangers moving like they know the song

Sweat on the mirror, steam on the glass

Watch the shapes of the night go past

Somebody's laughing two steps behind

Rewind the hi-hat, lose my mind

Heels off, dancing on the balls of my feet

Four AM but the room's still heat

Pre-Chorus

Hands go up when the snare drops in

Floor tilts sideways, let it spin

Can't find my name, don't need it now

Just the rail and the sway, and the crowd somehow

Chorus

Handrail sway, handrail sway

Holding on but I'm floating away

Lights go blue then gold then grey

Handrail sway, handrail sway

Bridge

Somewhere between the kick and the snare

I forgot the way that I got here

Don't wanna leave, don't wanna stay

Just wanna stay in the sway, the sway

Chorus

Handrail sway, handrail sway

Holding on but I'm floating away

Lights go blue then gold then grey

Handrail sway, handrail sway
