[Verse 1] There is a room inside the room Where the light hangs sick and low A pressure hand behind my ribs With nowhere it can show The windows hum like distant wires The floor forgets its name I say I'm fine, I laugh on cue But something moves the frame [Pre-Chorus] No voice, no word, no warning bell Just a tide beneath my skin If you ask me what I'm running from I don't know where to begin [Chorus] It rolls below the blood A thunder I can't hear Shaking every locked door open Dragging shadows near If fear can wear a frequency If grief can learn to flood Then maybe what has haunted me Was rolling below the blood [Verse 2] Traffic breathes through concrete lungs Old walls mutter in their sleep Elevators, engines, storms All digging underneath I blamed the ghosts, I blamed my head I blamed the hour and the rain But the world has hands below the sound And they keep touching pain [Pre-Chorus] No choir, no crash, no siren song Just the floorboards letting go Some monsters never show their teeth They only make you know [Chorus] It rolls below the blood A thunder I can't hear Shaking every locked door open Dragging shadows near If fear can wear a frequency If grief can learn to flood Then maybe what has haunted me Was rolling below the blood [Bridge] Turn it down, I can't find the dial Turn it down, it lives in the stone Turn it down, my pulse is a trial For a crime I never owned And if I am not broken If this dread is not my name Let the silence finally witness What was moving through the frame [Final Chorus] It rolls below the blood But now I know it's there Not every fear that finds me Started in my prayer I put my hand against the wall Feel the hidden river run I am more than what it shook loose I am more than what it done It rolls below the blood A thunder I can't hear But I can name the darkness now And naming makes it clear [Outro] Below the blood Below the blood The silent engine fades Below the blood
