Verse 1
Ash on the rim of the iron drum
Waiting for the lower notes to come
Sweat on your neck where the shirt falls slack
Heels keeping time on the patio crack
Pre-Chorus
Lean back, don't speak
Let the timber peak
Feel the iron hum
Here the pulses run
Chorus
Smoke signals rising in the dark
Log drum hitting on the mark
Breathe it out, pull me in
Rhythm moving under your skin
Smoke signals rising in the dark
Verse 2
Cinder drops down on the gravel floor
Bass pushing soft through the metal door
Fingers uncurl at the curve of your hip
Nothing to spill from a quiet lip
Dust settling low where our ankles turn
Only the coals and the speakers burn
Pre-Chorus
Lean back, don't speak
Let the timber peak
Feel the iron hum
Here the pulses run
Chorus
Smoke signals rising in the dark
Log drum hitting on the mark
Breathe it out, pull me in
Rhythm moving under your skin
Smoke signals rising in the dark
Bridge
No torch needed to know where you stand
Weight of the sub in the palm of your hand
Ground cools down while the blood stays warm
Two slow silhouettes out of the storm
Chorus
Smoke signals rising in the dark
Log drum hitting on the mark
Breathe it out, pull me in
Rhythm moving under your skin
Smoke signals rising in the dark
