Sweat Is Prayer (Version 2)

Intro

Salt on my lip

Room breathing with me

Verse

Shirt gone dark where the shoulder bends

Water leaves me, the room takes it in

Every drop I had to give

Rising up where the light begins

Pre-Chorus

Heat climbs up from the small of my back

Skin lets go of what it's holding

Nothing left to keep, nothing left to hold

Just the salt and the slow unfolding

Chorus

Sweat is prayer

Sweat is prayer

Body giving what the night is owed

Sweat is prayer

Verse

Collarbone shines under the low blue glow

Breath comes short, then long, then slow

Every pore an open door

Water finds the way out I don't know

Pre-Chorus

Heat climbs up from the small of my back

Skin lets go of what it's holding

Nothing left to keep, nothing left to hold

Just the salt and the slow unfolding

Chorus

Sweat is prayer

Sweat is prayer

Body giving what the night is owed

Sweat is prayer

Bridge

Nothing to ask, nothing to name

Just the water leaving, over and over the same

Skin keeps giving, floor keeps taking

This is the only offering I'm making

Chorus

Sweat is prayer

Sweat is prayer

Body giving what the night is owed

Sweat is prayer

Outro

Salt on my lip

Room breathing with me

Sweat is prayer
