Dust on the Skin (वर्ज़न 2)

Intro

Red road rising past my ankles

Sun not up but the taxi hums

Verse

Market stalls still wrapped in plastic

Dust settles soft on the corrugated tin

Grandfather walked this road at sunrise

Same dust now sits on my skin

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from my heels to my shoulders

Feel it settle where my breath begins

Every grain got a name inside it

Dust on the skin, dust on the skin

Chorus

Dust on the skin

Dust on the skin

Carried by the ones before me

Dust on the skin

Verse

Street sweeper's broom against the concrete

Copper light through the taxi rank haze

My feet find the rhythm of the market

Same road, same dust, same days

Pre-Chorus

Feel it climb from my heels to my shoulders

Feel it settle where my breath begins

Every grain got a name inside it

Dust on the skin, dust on the skin

Chorus

Dust on the skin

Dust on the skin

Carried by the ones before me

Dust on the skin

Bridge

It don't wash off in the water

It don't fade when the bassline ends

It moves with me into morning

Dust becomes my skin again

Chorus

Dust on the skin

Dust on the skin

Carried by the ones before me

Dust on the skin

Outro

Red road rising past my ankles

Dust on the skin, where the morning begins
