Lyrics
The Folly Beach parking pass from last July,
A single mother-of-pearl cufflink, bone dry.
One dead battery rolling on its side,
The place where all the good rubber bands go to hide.
[Chorus]
This whole house is holding its breath.
A low-pressure feeling, like the air before rain.
Listening with one ear to the coming quiet.
[Verse 2]

[Chorus]
This whole house is holding its breath.
A low-pressure feeling, like the air before rain.
Listening with one ear to the coming quiet.
[Bridge]
The ozone smell on the afternoon breeze.
A future memory rustling the sweetgrass and the trees.
[Outro]
Just static, on one side.
(vocal texture fades)
