Holding the Hum

Verse 1

Cedar dust and amber beam

Cardboard coaster on the floor

I don't touch my keys tonight

I don't look back toward the door

Sub-bass leaning in my ribs

Warm breath resting on my neck

All the clutter in my head

Fading to a single thread

Pre-Chorus

Is it two or is it four

Does it matter anymore

Every shoulder moves in time

Leaving all the noise behind

Chorus

Holding the hum

Deep in the center of it

Holding the hum

Letting the heavy world lift

Holding the hum

Nothing to find or to lose

Holding the hum

Golden and moving with you

Verse 2

Melted ice inside the cup

Speaker cabinet vibrating warm

Strangers leaning hip to hip

Sheltered from whatever storm

Tilted head and heavy eyes

Soles are sliding on the tile

I forgot the week we left

I forgot myself a while

Pre-Chorus

Is it two or is it four

Does it matter anymore

Every shoulder moves in time

Leaving all the noise behind

Chorus

Holding the hum

Deep in the center of it

Holding the hum

Letting the heavy world lift

Holding the hum

Nothing to find or to lose

Holding the hum

Golden and moving with you

Bridge

Let the walls forget our names

Let the sunrise lose the race

Only this low frequency

Warming up a quiet face

Chorus

Holding the hum

Deep in the center of it

Holding the hum

Letting the heavy world lift

Holding the hum

Nothing to find or to lose

Holding the hum

Golden and moving with you
