(Verse 1) My shirt’s sticking to my back and the air is thin But I didn’t come here just to blend back in The sink is leaking in the back of the bar But under these lights, everybody’s a star. Forget the bills and the 9-to-5 grit Tonight’s a high wire and I’m walking it. (Pre-Chorus) Close your eyes, let the room go blurred The bass is saying what can’t be heard It’s a heartbeat, honey, it’s a heavy hum Waiting for the moment that the brasses come. (Chorus) Give me that human groove, let it sweat, let it bleed It’s the only kind of medicine I’m gonna need With a kick drum steady like a physical touch And a feeling so heavy it’s a little too much. Yeah, we’re spinning in the dark on a spinning ball Just waiting for the rhythm to catch our fall. (Verse 2) You’re leaning on the speaker like you’re catching a breath Chasing a feeling half to life, half to death There’s a tear in the vinyl, a skip in the track But nobody’s looking for their money back. We’re just bodies in motion, we’re heat and we’re bone Dancing together so we don’t feel alone. (Bridge) (Everything drops out but the drums and a funky, "scratchy" guitar) It’s not about the sparkle, it’s not about the show It’s the way your blood moves when the lights get low. Can you feel it? (Yeah) Is it real yet? (Yeah) Now give me the horns! (Chorus) Give me that human groove, let it sweat, let it bleed It’s the only kind of medicine I’m gonna need With a kick drum steady like a physical touch And a feeling so heavy it’s a little too much. Yeah, we’re spinning in the dark on a spinning ball Just waiting for the rhythm to catch our fall. (Outro) Don’t turn the lights on yet... I’m not ready for the world to be quiet. Just one more spin. Just one more breath. (Fade out with the sound of a real drummer slowing down, catching their breath)
