[INFORMATION IN BRACKETS IN CAPITALS IS INFORMATION / DIRECTION - NOT LYRICS] [DJ TOOL INTRO - PERCUSSION ONLY] [INTRO - VOCAL CHOPS: “MM—MM”, “AH—”, “TA—TA—” - OFFBEAT] [VERSE 1 - STRIPPED - UNDERSTATED ] I’m a dot in motion in a moving frame touch then vanish no one to blame Heat makes halos round every face I ride the flicker through borrowed space [PRE-CHORUS 1 - HALF SPOKEN / HALF SUNG ] Don’t name the feeling don’t make it neat What do they catch when I pass — right? I read the room-sound through bass and feet What do they catch when I pass — right? [CHORUS - LOOPABLE - 32 BARS] I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) I drift over bodies (hush, hush, hush) I drift over bodies (hush, hush, hush) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) [BG VOX: “OVER BODIES… OVER BODIES…” - OFFBEAT SWELLS] [POST-CHORUS GROOVE - DJ FRIENDLY - BACKING VOCALS - “drift… drift…” - CHOPS: “MM—MM / drift”- FILTER PLAY, SHORT DELAY THROWS] [BREAK - LOMG IMSTRUMENTAL - NO LEAD VOCAL] [BUILD -- HANDCLAP-STYLE CHANTS, LOW IN MIX - BACKING VOCALS - “drift over bodies… drift over bodies…” - CUT UP, RHYTHMIC - RISERS, SNARE ROLLS LIGHT, NOT BIG-ROOM] [CHORUS - LOOPABLE] I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) I drift over bodies (hush, hush, hush) I drift over bodies (hush, hush, hush) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) [VERSE 2 - SUMMER TILT, STILL COOL] Fan turns time thin silver and slow every blink looping go, go, go Perfume geometry cuts the air phone-light comets everywhere DJ folds the horizon pulls it back I skim the edge where the shadows stack [PRE-CHORUS 2 - RAISE ENERGY ] Don’t call it chaos don’t call it sweet What do they hear when I slip through — now? Hold that shimmer under the beat What do they hear when I slip through — now? [CHORUS EXTENDED AND LOOPING - PARTY ANTHEM MODE] I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) I drift over bodies (hush, hush, hush) I drift over bodies (hush, hush, hush) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) I drift over bodies (high, high, high) I drift over bodies (high, high, high) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) [SPARSE CALLBACK - USE ONCE ONLY - HALF BAR, THEN CUT] Fly in the club I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) [DROP / HOLD] [FINAL DROP / CHORUS STACK - ICONIC SUMMER LOOP] I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) I drift over bodies (high, high, high) I drift over bodies (high, high, high) I drift — I drift (I drift over bodies?) [CROWD LINE - CHANTED - STILL COOL] Ask the air, ask the air Ask the air, ask the air [FINAL LOCK - OUTRO DJ TOOL] I drift over bodies (drift, drift, drift) [STRIP BACK TO KICK/HATS FOR MIX OUT - PERCUSSION ONLY]
