Lyrics
The first rhythm was a chest against the earth
A palm against a hollow log
Before the string before the scale
The heartbeat was the only song
Heartbeat the continent's pulse never stopped
Heartbeat the continent's pulse never stopped
Never stopped
Never stopped
The log drum speaks in frequencies
That bypass ears and hit the spine
Ten thousand years of hands on wood
And still the pattern holds the line
Before melody before harmony before tempo before time
There was a heartbeat and a hollow log and the understanding they were the same
Heartbeat the continent's pulse never stopped
Heartbeat the continent's pulse never stopped
Never stopped
Never stopped
The bass line moves beneath my stomach
The shaker lines my nervous system
I feel the log drum in my jawbone
And lose the boundary of my body
My pulse synchronizes with the wood
My breathing with the shaker's hiss
The log drum doesn't play a rhythm
The log drum plays the thing I am
