Verse
Tile cold under bare heel bone
Joist creaks low like a second groan
Floor's a drum skin, dust jumps thin
Building's ribcage letting bass in
Shoe sole tingling, sub-line hum
Vibration climbing up through thumb
Concrete pillar breathing slow
Basement heartbeat down below
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the building sway
Boards confessing what they can't say
Every plank's a vein that's fed
Pulse running up from the bassbin bed
Chorus
Pulse under the floorboards
Pulse under the floorboards
Building's heartbeat, I'm the conduit
Pulse under the floorboards
Verse
Pipe sweats condensation down the wall
Crowd weight bending the whole hall
Nail heads humming in the wood
Floor remembers everywhere we stood
Copper wire buzzing overhead
Speaker cone breathing out instead
Static crackle, skin gone bright
Floorboards carry us through the night
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the building sway
Boards confessing what they can't say
Every plank's a vein that's fed
Pulse running up from the bassbin bed
Chorus
Pulse under the floorboards
Pulse under the floorboards
Building's heartbeat, I'm the conduit
Pulse under the floorboards
Bridge
I'm not standing, I am wired in
Skirting board holding my shin
Building's lungs and building's spine
Structure keeping perfect time
Every level, every floor
Same pulse feeding every door
Chorus
Pulse under the floorboards
Pulse under the floorboards
Building's heartbeat, I'm the conduit
Pulse under the floorboards
