Skin & Kinetic Prayer (Version 2)

Verse

Salt runs warm down my collarbone

Palms open where the light comes through

Heat rising off a hundred backs

Turns this room to something true

Every rib knows the rhythm's name

Every breath falls into line

Skin remembers what the mind forgets

Body moves before design

Pre-Chorus

Hands go up when the low end drops

Nobody taught us, we just know

Something ancient in the offering

Sweat becomes the afterglow

Chorus

Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer

Lift up your palms, let go right here

Heat on the shoulder, breath in the air

Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer

Verse

Spine curls soft to the second kick

Shoulders shine like river stone

Strangers move like a single lung

Nobody dancing here alone

Fingers trace the heat we made

Rising slow past the rafters bare

Every muscle turns devotion

Every pulse becomes a prayer

Pre-Chorus

Hands go up when the low end drops

Nobody taught us, we just know

Something ancient in the offering

Sweat becomes the afterglow

Chorus

Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer

Lift up your palms, let go right here

Heat on the shoulder, breath in the air

Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer

Bridge

Not a word, just the heat we hold

Not a name, just the shape we make

Every body a small altar

Burning slow for the rhythm's sake

Chorus

Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer

Lift up your palms, let go right here

Heat on the shoulder, breath in the air

Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer
