Verse
Bass too loud for a single word
So you count it soft, the only sound I've heard
One on my shoulder, two on my spine
Three where your mouth just grazes mine
Floor's too packed to say what we mean
So we trade in numbers, quiet between
Four goes missing under the drum
You lean back in when the four should come
Pre-Chorus
Is it a secret or just the beat
Do you feel it too, down in your feet
Chorus
Whisper the count on the four
Lean in close, say no more
Whisper the count on the four
Skin knows what the words are for
Whisper the count on the four
Lost in the noise, found on the floor
Whisper the count on the four, on the four
Verse
Strobe cuts your face into pieces of light
One two three, you disappear then you're right
Back at my ear like you never left
Counting the gap where I hold my breath
Crowd folds in and the room gets small
Your voice is a hum I can barely recall
But four lands soft right against my jaw
Every time like the first time, no flaw
Pre-Chorus
Is it a secret or just the beat
Do you feel it too, down in your feet
Chorus
Whisper the count on the four
Lean in close, say no more
Whisper the count on the four
Skin knows what the words are for
Whisper the count on the four
Lost in the noise, found on the floor
Whisper the count on the four, on the four
Bridge
Maybe it's not the words we keep
Maybe it's just how close we lean
One two three, held in the deep
Four is the only truth between
Chorus
Whisper the count on the four
Lean in close, say no more
Whisper the count on the four
Skin knows what the words are for
Whisper the count on the four
Lost in the noise, found on the floor
Whisper the count on the four, on the four
