Verse 1
Bare feet pressed to the cooling brick
Log drum hums where the air grows thick
Thin grey spiral of cedar wood
Standing right where the fire stood
You don't speak, you just turn your hands
Dust kicks soft where the rhythm lands
Pre-Chorus
Watch it rise, let it drift
Feel the weight in the gravel shift
Drop your shoulder, count to four
Nothing else on this quiet floor
Chorus
Smoke signals in the fading light
Chest to chest while the bass rolls slow
Smoke signals in the fading light
We don't speak what the bodies know
Verse 2
Cool air pooling around your knees
Blue mist weaving between the trees
Amber ash on an open palm
Four a.m. and the yard is calm
Shoulder brushing against my coat
Echoes deep in a gravel throat
Pre-Chorus
Watch it rise, let it drift
Feel the weight in the gravel shift
Drop your shoulder, count to four
Nothing else on this quiet floor
Chorus
Smoke signals in the fading light
Chest to chest while the bass rolls slow
Smoke signals in the fading light
We don't speak what the bodies know
Bridge
Sky turns violet above the tin
Warm red spark on the dark brown skin
No more questions, no tracks to trace
Only pulse in an empty space
Chorus
Smoke signals in the fading light
Chest to chest while the bass rolls slow
Smoke signals in the fading light
We don't speak what the bodies know
