Lyrics
The KNBC weather map is bleeding red and gold
On a hurricane's eye turning vicious and cold
Your hand on my shoulder, you feel the tension spike
It's just lines on a screen, nothing I should dislike.
[Chorus]
There's a coil in the sky, a drop in the gauge
A dead-reckoning shudder turning the page
Feels like the whole damn ocean is holding its breath
And the salt on my skin remembers the depth.
[Verse 2]

A dead-reckoning shudder turning the page
Feels like the whole damn ocean is holding its breath
And the salt on my skin remembers the depth.
[Bridge]
I know it's not my watch, not my engine to keep.
"They'll ride it out fine." But I don't believe it.
[Outro]
The pressure's still dropping...
