The Current Flows

V6

Intro) (Single low acoustic note picked slowly, letting the wood resonance carry) (spoken softly) Iron in the water. Limestone in the bedrock. Some things don't shake loose no matter how hard the storm hits. Keep your feet planted on what stays solid... On your own, but not alone.... ​(Verse 1) Broken light on an open road Counting the miles by the heavy load Every frequency turning blue Looking for a path that's clean and true They try to tell you how the story goes From the root of the oak to the wild rose But the voice inside don't take no script It breaks the lock where the anchor slipped ​(Chorus) And the current flows, yeah the current runs Deeper than the noise of a thousand suns Hold your ground when the wind blows cold There’s a truth in the dirt that can’t be sold We’re moving forward through the open door Not looking back at the shape before On your own, but not alone ​(Verse 2) Hands on the wheel, eyes on the weather Trying to tie these threads together Old books open on a wooden table Matching every piece as far as we're able No fluff, no filler, just the plain hard stone Standing in the light on your own, but not alone ​(Chorus) And the current flows, yeah the current runs Deeper than the noise of a thousand suns Hold your ground when the wind blows cold There’s a truth in the dirt that can’t be sold We’re moving forward through the open door Not looking back at the shape before On your own, but not alone ​(Bridge) (Strip back instruments — kick drum and clean rhythm only) No echo. No filter. No weight left on the tilt. Just the steady line running straight and deep A promise that the silent ground will keep On your own, but not alone ​(Instrumental Break) ​(Chorus) And the current flows, yeah the current runs Deeper than the noise of a thousand suns Hold your ground when the wind blows cold There’s a truth in the dirt that can’t be sold We’re moving forward through the open door Not looking back at the shape before On your own, but not alone ​(Outro) (Fade out with steady rhythm pulse) Straight line Open door On your own, but not alone Not looking back... anymore (Static fades to zero)
