Skin Remembers 16

Verse

Black floor shakes where the strobes were

Last beat ringing in my ears

Hands up still though there's no sound

Kick drum living underneath the ground

Pulse keeps time with the crowd gone quiet

Sweat runs cold down the back of my neck

Bassline dies but the bass stays low, low

Chorus

Skin remembers what the silence does not

Skin holds on when the song is stopped

Hold it tight through the dark and the dust

Skin remembers, skin remembers

Verse 2

Neon flickers then goes flat black

Floor still moving under my feet

Someone's breathing right next to me

Four counts left before I hit the beat

Eyes shut tight but the room won't stop

Heart keeps the rhythm that the sound don't hold

Hands up high, nobody home

Body knows what it knows alone

Chorus

Skin remembers what the silence does not

Skin holds on when the song is stopped

Hold it tight through the dark and the dust

Skin remembers, skin remembers

Bridge

No more music

Just this one breath

Not a drop, just the ache underneath

That's where the bassline stays

Chorus

Skin remembers what the silence does not

Skin holds on when the song is stopped

Hold it tight through the dark and the dust

Skin remembers, skin remembers
