Rootwork Engine (versione 2)

Verse 1

Red light dusting on the stone

Cold soles flat against the floor

Sub-bass humming in the ribs

Lock the lock and drop the door

Salt on skin and steam in air

No more luggage left to bear

Pre-Chorus

Something humming underneath

Bite the rhythm through your teeth

Let the thinking slip away

Nothing left from yesterday

Chorus

Ground takes over from the bone

Leave your heavy name alone

Deep down turning in the dark

Hear the rootwork engine start

Ground takes over from the bone

Hear the rootwork engine start

Verse 2

Water running down the neck

Shoulders moving in the steam

Green line cutting through the haze

Wake up deeper in the dream

Strangers swaying hip to hip

Let the last connection slip

Pre-Chorus

Something humming underneath

Bite the rhythm through your teeth

Let the thinking slip away

Nothing left from yesterday

Chorus

Ground takes over from the bone

Leave your heavy name alone

Deep down turning in the dark

Hear the rootwork engine start

Ground takes over from the bone

Hear the rootwork engine start

Bridge

Pull the wire from the spine

Tangle up the yours and mine

Nothing standing in the head

Only where the feet are led

Chorus

Ground takes over from the bone

Leave your heavy name alone

Deep down turning in the dark

Hear the rootwork engine start

Ground takes over from the bone

Hear the rootwork engine start
