(mmmmm) (ahhhh) The floorboards hum
beneath my feet,
A heavy beat.
The world is loud,
it breaks and bends,
But down in the dark,
the noise all ends.
Pull the wire,
feel it bend,
Where the deep begins and the voices end.
A quiet anchor
in the deep,
A promise that the earth will keep.
It is the deep print
of the chord, A silent hand,
a heavy word.
You cannot see it
in the light,
But it holds
the room tonight.
Pull the wire,
feel it bend,
Where the deep begins and the voices end.
A quiet anchor
in the deep,
A promise that the earth will keep.
Down low,
Where the rivers go.
Down deep,
Before you sleep. (mmmmm)
