Verse 1
Blue coil turning in the corner light
Sweat cool against the neck of night
Bass shaking gravel right beneath the floor
You step back from the kitchen door
Warm breeze through the window screen
Quiet in the space between
Pre-Chorus
Can you read the rising grey
Hear what we don't need to say
Hold still, let the low end pull
Keep the heavy rhythm full
Chorus
Smoke signals drifting in the air
Your chest moving like a quiet prayer
No words needed when the drum stays low
Smoke signals, let the body know
Verse 2
Bare heels tapping on the concrete stone
Wood grain rattling in the speaker cone
Ash falling soft on a plastic chair
Midnight settling in your braided hair
Dust on our ankles where the night gets cold
Only what the two hands hold
Pre-Chorus
Can you read the rising grey
Hear what we don't need to say
Hold still, let the low end pull
Keep the heavy rhythm full
Chorus
Smoke signals drifting in the air
Your chest moving like a quiet prayer
No words needed when the drum stays low
Smoke signals, let the body know
Bridge
No wire, no call coming through
Just the bassline holding you
Breathe in, breathe out, steady and slow
Where the smoke curls up is the place we go
Chorus
Smoke signals drifting in the air
Your chest moving like a quiet prayer
No words needed when the drum stays low
Smoke signals, let the body know
