Midnight Sceptre lyrics
Verse
Four on the floor where shadows turn gold
Neon hums low like a siren's hold
Whispers in dust as we lose our names
Log drum pulse cuts through the smoke and flames
I found my heartbeat in your eyes tonight
You pulled me out of the dying light
Every step we take is a prayer to be found
Lost but not alone, we're turned around
Pre-Chorus
Can you hear it calling us down deep?
Where the bassline speaks where our silence sleeps?
Is this the one thing we can't define?
Something in the rhythm feels like mine
Chorus
Midnight sceptre, guiding us through
In the amber glow, I'm found with you
Every drop of sweat turns to gold and fire
We're chasing the heartbeat that never tires
Midnight sceptre, rising up from the floor
With every step we take, we're asking for more
Verse
Bassline low like a mother's gentle sigh
Sweat on skin where our two shadows lie
Log drum talking secrets only known to bone
We move as one until sunrise is home
Your hands find mine in the smoke and haze
Together we lose all we can't replace
One long pulse through our veins, no need for proof
This is how we heal, this is what we choose
Pre-Chorus
Can you hear it calling us down deep?
Where the bassline speaks where our silence sleeps?
Is this the one thing we can't define?
Something in the rhythm feels like mine
Chorus
Midnight sceptre, guiding us through
In the amber glow, I'm found with you
Every drop of sweat turns to gold and fire
We're chasing the heartbeat that never tires
Midnight sceptre, rising up from the floor
With every step we take, we're asking for more
Bridge
No clock ticking here where shadows roam
Only this pulse, only our bones
Let it keep us moving till the sky turns gold
This is all I need, this is all I'm told
Chorus
Midnight sceptre, guiding us through
In the amber glow, I'm found with you
Every drop of sweat turns to gold and fire
We're chasing the heartbeat that never tires
Midnight sceptre, rising up from the floor
With every step we take, we're asking for more
