Skin & Concrete Sermon (versione 2)

Verse

Sternum humming, kick drum low

Ribs pull open like a door

Warm air thick with everybody's breath

Filling up until I can't hold more

Skin remembers what to do

Chest rises on the one and three

Every dancer breathing slower

Til the room breathes back at me

Pre-Chorus

Feel it rising through the sternum

Feel it filling every vein

Room exhales the same slow rhythm

We're the lungs of the same refrain

Chorus

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Chest wide open, holy rite

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Verse

Sweat runs down between my ribs

Collarbone catching amber gold

Every breath I take is borrowed

From the hundred breathing close

Shoulders drop, the cage unlocks

Air moves thick and slow as gold

Something ancient in the low end

Older than this night can hold

Pre-Chorus

Feel it rising through the sternum

Feel it filling every vein

Room exhales the same slow rhythm

We're the lungs of the same refrain

Chorus

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Chest wide open, holy rite

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Bridge

No count of breaths left to keep

One lung, one room, one long exhale

Clocks forget the shape of hours

Here the body sets the scale

Chorus

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Inhale the bass, exhale the light

Chest wide open, holy rite

Inhale the bass, exhale the light
