Sweat Like Lightning (Version 2)

Verse

Six a.m., the mirrors still grey

Your gym bag's zipped, you're already gone

Locker fifty-two, the tape peels away

One more set before the sun comes on

Chalk dust settling where your hands used to rest

I lace up alone, count the weight on my chest

Pre-Chorus

Can I let you go and still keep the fire

Turn this ending into something higher

Heart's redlining, feet on the floor

Tell me this is what the burn is for

Chorus

I'm sweating like lightning, letting you go

Sparks off the pavement, my heart hits the floor

Goodbye's just a voltage running through my veins

Sweat like lightning, washing out the pain

Thunder in my chest but I'm chasing the light

Sweat like lightning, I survive tonight

Verse

Your name still taped above my station

Peel it off, don't need permission

Water bottle empty where you always sat

New playlist loading, I won't look back

Barbell's cold but my grip's still steady

Every rep's a promise I'm already

Building something you can't take from me

Building something loud and free

Pre-Chorus

Can I let you go and still keep the fire

Rising off the mat like a live wire

Heart's redlining, feet on the floor

Tell me this is what the burn is for

Chorus

I'm sweating like lightning, letting you go

Sparks off the pavement, my heart hits the floor

Goodbye's just a voltage running through my veins

Sweat like lightning, washing out the pain

Thunder in my chest but I'm chasing the light

Sweat like lightning, I survive tonight

Bridge

Sun cracks the window, gold on the chrome

Every drop I shed, I'm building a home

Out of the ashes, this body's a spark

Static and thunder, I'm lighting the dark

No more waiting on a closing door

I am the storm now, I am the roar

Chorus

I'm sweating like lightning, letting you go

Sparks off the pavement, my heart hits the floor

Goodbye's just a voltage running through my veins

Sweat like lightning, washing out the pain

Thunder in my chest but I'm chasing the light

Sweat like lightning, I survive tonight
