Ashen Vertigo (versione 2)

Verse

Dust on the floorboards, heel raw and low

Ribs pull tight where the thin light goes

Shoulder blade leans on the cool concrete

Night lets go slow, doesn't rush the heat

Palms find the ledge where the sun climbs in

Pulse drops down to a hush, to a thin

Thread of breath pulled long through the frame

Doorway holds you, half sun, half shade

Pre-Chorus

Let the wall take what your knees can't hold

Let the light cross the threshold slow

Chorus

Skin against sunrise

Press it in

Skin against sunrise

Feel it begin

Skin against sunrise

Let it in

Skin against sunrise

Under your skin

Verse

Throat tilts open where the horn line bends

Elbows loosen, the holding ends

Sweat cools slow on the back of your neck

Sun climbs higher, no need to check

Feet flat down on the warming stone

Weight moves through you, settling in bone

Chest lifts up where the low end used to press

Light replaces what the dark confessed

Pre-Chorus

Let the floor take what your feet can't hold

Let the day cross the threshold slow

Chorus

Skin against sunrise

Press it in

Skin against sunrise

Feel it begin

Skin against sunrise

Let it in

Skin against sunrise

Under your skin

Bridge

No more counting what the night cost you

Just the frame, the light coming through

Doorway wide, the dark stepped back

Skin holds proof of everything you lack

Chorus

Skin against sunrise

Press it in

Skin against sunrise
