Let the slow drum carry the rest lyrics
Verse 1
Chalk dust rising from the step outside
Low roll humming where the shadows hide
Your palm flat against the timber post
Holding to the pulse that moves us most
Warm wind blowing through the open gate
Heavy wooden cone that holds the weight
Pre-Chorus
Close your eyes now
Let the low end slide
Close your eyes now
Nowhere left to hide
Chorus
Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest
Let the slow drum carry the rest
Skin on skin while the speakers hum
Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest
Verse 2
Sweat on your collar like a drop of rain
Bare heels turning on the gravel lane
Shift your ribs right into the swing
We don't need to name a single thing
Vibration crawling through the hollow stone
Two silhouettes moving on their own
Pre-Chorus
Close your eyes now
Let the low end slide
Close your eyes now
Nowhere left to hide
Chorus
Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest
Let the slow drum carry the rest
Skin on skin while the speakers hum
Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest
Bridge
Down in the timber, down in the wire
Cool night cutting through the velvet fire
No breath wasted, no step wrong
The body knows where the drop belongs
Chorus
Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest
Let the slow drum carry the rest
Skin on skin while the speakers hum
Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest
