Keep your heels on the heavy ground lyrics
Verse 1
Red dust settles on the speaker box
Sun leans low on the brick and stone
Your bare feet on the cooling slab
You move close, you are not alone
Log drum taps on an open vein
Quiet breath like a summer rain
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the stone give way?
Can you feel the pulse down deep?
Everything we couldn't say
Moving where the shadows sleep
Chorus
Water moving under the sound
Keep your heels on the heavy ground
No more words in the air tonight
Water moving under the sound
Roll it slow, let the current rise
Water moving under the sound
Verse 2
Cool breeze touches on your wet skin
Purple light on the iron roof
One low kick and your shoulders drop
The body never needs the proof
Two hands resting on open air
No one asking who brought us there
Pre-Chorus
Can you feel the stone give way?
Can you feel the pulse down deep?
Everything we couldn't say
Moving where the shadows sleep
Chorus
Water moving under the sound
Keep your heels on the heavy ground
No more words in the air tonight
Water moving under the sound
Roll it slow, let the current rise
Water moving under the sound
Bridge
No shore to reach
No line to cross
The floor holds all
We thought was lost
Sink down into the dark below
The only way is to let it go
Chorus
Water moving under the sound
Keep your heels on the heavy ground
No more words in the air tonight
Water moving under the sound
Roll it slow, let the current rise
Water moving under the sound
