Lyrics
The August fans on Shem Creek couldn't move the air
Your glass left a perfect ring of sweat on the dark wood there
I felt his silence through the floorboards, a low-frequency strain
You mouthed the words "I'm fine," a mono signal in the coming rain.
[Chorus]
Eliza, I only heard your side
A static on the tide
One channel, open wide
Just the steady causeway hum inside.
[Spoken Interlude]
(Filtered, male voice, distant)
"You don't listen. You just… feel for the vibrations."
[Verse 2]

That single sweetgrass rose he bought was browning from the heat
Heard the Gullah rhythm of your foot tapping a slow retreat.
[Bridge]
(Tempo slows)
Some of us are born to the estuary, you see
Where the fresh and salt can never quite agree.
[Outro]
Just that causeway hum.
Loud in my good ear.
