Kilohertz Fault (versione 3)

Verse 1

Cold wet concrete under boot

Copper cable at the root

Sub-bass rattling the bone

Tear the static from the stone

Jaw stays tight, the meter runs

Count the hours without the sun

Pre-Chorus

Static crawling up the wall

Catch the tremor, take the fall

No one breaks and no one slows

Hold it till the ceiling blows

Chorus

Trace the current, taste the salt

Moving on the kilohertz fault

Lock the shoulder, lock the skin

Move until the lights come in

Trace the current, taste the salt

Moving on the kilohertz fault

No one speaks and no one leaves

Move until the lights come in

Verse 2

Steam vent coughing on the rail

Heavy iron on the scale

Four a.m., the yellow dial

Spin the needle out a mile

Water dripping on the rack

Keep the kick drum at the back

Pre-Chorus

Static crawling up the wall

Catch the tremor, take the fall

No one breaks and no one slows

Hold it till the ceiling blows

Chorus

Trace the current, taste the salt

Moving on the kilohertz fault

Lock the shoulder, lock the skin

Move until the lights come in

Trace the current, taste the salt

Moving on the kilohertz fault

No one speaks and no one leaves

Move until the lights come in

Bridge

White tubes hum above the pit

Not yet, not yet, don't let it hit

Hold the dark against the floor

Feed the motor something more

Pounding under, pounding deep

Not the hour to fall asleep

Chorus

Trace the current, taste the salt

Moving on the kilohertz fault

Lock the shoulder, lock the skin

Move until the lights come in

Trace the current, taste the salt

Moving on the kilohertz fault

No one speaks and no one leaves

Move until the lights come in
