[Intro] [Instrumental: vinyl surface noise, slow envelope-filter bass, muted wah guitar, sparse electric piano chords] [Verse 1] Dust on the fader, needles in the groove Shadows on the dance floor that forgotten feet used to move A brass section sleeping in a rusted rack We were chasing the downbeat, but the light ain't coming back Broken tape loop floating in the night Reverb on the echo of a long-extinguished light [Chorus] Oh, the funk stays alive in the fallen sky Sinking in the analog, watching time pass by Lost in the rhythm of a world gone cold Spinning gold from the ashes of the stories untold Yeah, the groove don't die, it just drifts away Echoes of the funk from a forgotten day [Verse 2] Cassette shell melting on a dashboard tray Cracked leather jacket where the brass notes used to play Ghost in the channel, static in the drum Waiting for the beat that's never gonna come Slap bass rumbling through the hollow floor Calling out the dancers who don't live here anymore [Chorus] Oh, the funk stays alive in the fallen sky Sinking in the analog, watching time pass by Lost in the rhythm of a world gone cold Spinning gold from the ashes of the stories untold Yeah, the groove don't die, it just drifts away Echoes of the funk from a forgotten day [Bridge] [Instrumental: extended dark synth bass solo, spacey dub delays, sweeping phaser, warm electric piano solo] [Outro] Fading to the tape hiss Groove in the ruins Echoes... lost time... [Fade out]
