Trenchline Bounce (Version 2)

Verse 1

Wet gravel buzzing through the thin sole shoes

Sub in the ribcage, shaking loose the screws

Steam off the drain, collar pulled up tight

Levitating slow in the amber light

Cold iron railing getting left behind

Nothing in the pocket, nothing on the mind

Pre-Chorus

Static in the jawbone, rising off the street

Losing all the drag in the rhythm of the feet

Higher than the brickwork, lighter than the steam

Waking up wide in a wide-eyed dream

Chorus

Trenchline bounce, shake the lead off the chest

Riding on the sub bass, forgetting all the rest

Trenchline bounce, let the shadow run clear

Ten feet above it, not a ghost around here

Verse 2

Tarmac slick where the black tires spun

Every little trouble coming all undone

Two-step jitter with the chest thrown wide

Current in the blood like an electric tide

Cracked curb glowing where the neon leaks

Haven't felt a shadow in the longest weeks

Pre-Chorus

Static in the jawbone, rising off the street

Losing all the drag in the rhythm of the feet

Higher than the brickwork, lighter than the steam

Waking up wide in a wide-eyed dream

Chorus

Trenchline bounce, shake the lead off the chest

Riding on the sub bass, forgetting all the rest

Trenchline bounce, let the shadow run clear

Ten feet above it, not a ghost around here

Bridge

Up off the curb now, no tether, no floor

Walking through the rumble like an open door

Blood running clean while the engine hums light

Cutting every cable in the middle of the night

Chorus

Trenchline bounce, shake the lead off the chest

Riding on the sub bass, forgetting all the rest

Trenchline bounce, let the shadow run clear

Ten feet above it, not a ghost around here
