Skin Against the Amber Light

Verse

Kick drops out, the room holds its chest

Amber light lands soft on your neck

Sweat traces the line where your collar bends

Silence is where the touching begins

Pre-Chorus

Bass falls away, we don't lose the thread

Your hand on my spine, a language instead

Broken beat, still we find the same time

Skin keeps the rhythm the speakers left behind

Chorus

Skin against the amber light

Holding still on the offbeat night

Skin against the amber light

Nothing moves but we move right

Verse

Shoulder blade warm where the spotlight bleeds

Fingers map slow what the low end feeds

Half a beat late but our hips still know

Amber falls heavy, we let it go

Pre-Chorus

Bass falls away, we don't lose the thread

Your hand on my spine, a language instead

Broken beat, still we find the same time

Skin keeps the rhythm the speakers left behind

Chorus

Skin against the amber light

Holding still on the offbeat night

Skin against the amber light

Nothing moves but we move right

Bridge

Every gap the drum forgets

We fill in with breath and sweat

No count, no clock, just amber heat

Your pulse becomes the missing beat

Chorus

Skin against the amber light

Holding still on the offbeat night

Skin against the amber light

Nothing moves but we move right
