An empty beat, like a broken drum,
Weaving its lazy way through the air,
Limping and careening about the atmosphere,
Till it breaks, then silence....
Hit the bass line, bring it back,
Make my heart beat, make my foot tap,
Got the movement, feel the life lift
Pumping sweat and playing the riff,
Lean and easy, swing into the rhythm
Rips through with teeth
Releases grief
Breaks the inertia, momentum given....
And now I can get back to what I was doing....
