NO SIGNAL NEEDED

I walked in late with a look like that Whole room froze then it bounced right back One little move and the lights went strange I didn't touch it but everything changed Left foot, right turn, caught in the frame Nobody here even plays it the same Talk gets loud but I cut right through Three steps ahead before they get the clue Wait— Don't put a line where I won't stay still Quick little switch and I change the feel Cut through the middle, I bend that beat Words hit clean when they land on me Back on the one then I jump that space Half of a smile with a straight-up face Hold that thought— Now watch it flip Bass comes back when I tighten the grip Something in the room keeps moving Every little sound comes through I don't need to know what's coming I just like the way it moves Keep it moving, don't slow down Turn the whole thing inside out Every second changes shape I can feel it getting loud No straight line, no safe way through Let the rhythm choose the route When I think I've heard enough Something new comes jumping out Too quick Not yet Turn it once again New sound Right there Here it comes again I hear the edges start to glow Tiny little sparks between the notes Nothing stays where it began That's exactly why I want it back One for the kick, two for the space I leave a gap then I pick up pace Never just low, never one straight tone I push then pull till the rhythm's my own Short little run then I cut it clean Drums wake up when I raise that heat Closer, closer—Don't let it drop One more turn and we're over the top Take one sound and let it disappear Bring it back when nobody thinks it's near Change the color, change the view Make the old feel suddenly new Keep it moving, don't slow down Turn the whole thing inside out Every second changes shape I can feel it getting loud No straight line, no safe way through Let the rhythm choose the route When I think I've heard enough Something new comes jumping out Too quick Not yet Turn it once again New sound Right there Here it comes again
