Hold the Pulse 2 2

Verse 1

Sweat on my collarbone where the air is thin

Copper drums and a heartbeat hum that swallows every breath within

Your hand finds mine in the crush of heat

Pulse for pulse until we break free from this beat

Bodies moving like water, liquid and gold

The rhythm is pulling us deeper than I know

So let's lose our names and just move as one

Let the kick drum be the only thing that's won

Fingers intertwined where the smoke curls up

I can feel your chest start to climb my cup

Your skin tastes warm like a summer rain

I don't need no reason, not even a name

Just keep this floor spinning till the stars come through

We're running on fumes but we won't say stop

Every step is surrender and we're both ready for it yet

Can you feel that kick in your ribcage now?

Is this what they mean by losing control somehow?

I don't care how long we burn through the night

Just keep this fire lit, hold me tight

And when it's over I'll still hear this sound

Pounding deep within until it's all around

No dawn yet on your eyes

No surrender in your stride

Hold my hand till the sky goes pink

I don't care if tomorrow comes back to kick us out of here tonight

Just keep this pulse beating, just keep it low

I'll take one more of this and never let go

Pre-Chorus

Is this love? Is this what we've been chasing all along?

Can you feel that fire in the room starting to rise?

Do we keep running or do we finally stay here?

Where the heat turns sweat into a river down my chest

And I don't care if it's too much, just let me hold on to this instead

Chorus

I am yours, you are mine

Hold the pulse and never let go tonight

We burn like fire, we never slow down

Every step is surrender and this sound

So turn around and face me where the strobes cut through

Turn up loud the beat that's breaking us in two

Just hold my hand right here under these lights

I am yours and you are mine in every pulse tonight

Verse 2

Your breath against my neck where the crowd thins out a bit

The music slows but our bodies keep on moving like it

No names, no reason just this endless current we can't fight

Your skin is warm against the cold steel of the rail

I feel your fingers slide up to my shoulder blade now

And I'm chasing after every inch that you're claiming back

We move as one in time with the four-count kick drum and low hum

You don't need a reason just take what's yours, I won't stop this till it's done

Every step is surrender but our hearts are still on the same side of town

So if you lose yourself out here on this floor tonight

Just know that I am here to catch whatever falls from the fight

We're chasing nothing left to say and everything in between

And when we finally stop this won't be goodbye, just an amen

Pre-Chorus

Is this love? Is this what we've been chasing all along?

Can you feel that fire in the room starting to rise?

Do we keep running or do we finally stay here?

Where the heat turns sweat into a river down my chest
