Leave the daylight, let go the rest

Verse 1

Orange light slanting on the red brick wall

Dust settling down where the long shadows fall

You slide your heel on the cooling stone

Heavy log drum humming in the bone

Pre-Chorus

Drop down low

Let the stone take the weight

Sun sinking slow

Past the iron gate

Chorus

Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest

Leave the daylight, let go the rest

Low slide moving right through the skin

Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest

Verse 2

Sweat cooling off on the nape of your neck

Two shadows stretching on the concrete deck

Your palm turns up, letting rhythm decide

Following the groove where the bass notes slide

Pre-Chorus

Drop down low

Let the stone take the weight

Sun sinking slow

Past the iron gate

Chorus

Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest

Leave the daylight, let go the rest

Low slide moving right through the skin

Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest

Bridge

Night takes the color right out of the sky

One heavy pulse as the evening goes by

Ribs catch the tremor, heels find the floor

Nothing to look for, nothing to want more

Chorus

Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest

Leave the daylight, let go the rest

Low slide moving right through the skin

Feel the pitch bend deep in your chest
