Concrete Cathedrals (Version 2)

Verse

Steel beams singing under the wire

Sweat drips into the city fire

I built this temple out of rust and bone

Now I'm kneeling at its altar alone

Every night I walk through those gates like a king

Every drop is another anthem I sing

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it climbing over us?

Something holy in the sub frequency rush

Hands up, we don't need the sun to shine

Chorus

Concrete cathedrals, shake the ground below me

Bass in my chest like a goddamn revelation

I'm the only choir and I'm singing loud and free

Concrete cathedrals, this is where I find myself tonight

Concrete cathedrals, holy hell of noise and light

Verse 2

Tin roof rattling with every kick drum hit

Every person here a saint who never quit

I carved my name into the beam above us all

This is what redemption looks like in this hall

No priest just the pulse and the floor beneath my feet

This is the only church that I believe

Pre-Chorus

Can you hear it climbing over us?

Something holy in the sub frequency rush

Hands up, we don't need the sun to shine

Chorus

Concrete cathedrals, shake the ground below me

Bass in my chest like a goddamn revelation

I'm the only choir and I'm singing loud and free

Concrete cathedrals, this is where I find myself tonight

Concrete cathedrals, holy hell of noise and light

Bridge

Maybe it's just bass but it feels like more than that

Maybe every drop is a prayer I've never said yet

No altar no rosary, just skin against steel

This is how I find my faith in the silence I can't feel

Chorus

Concrete cathedrals, shake the ground below me

Bass in my chest like a goddamn revelation

I'm the only choir and I'm singing loud and free

Concrete cathedrals, this is where I find myself tonight

Concrete cathedrals, holy hell of noise and light
