Sweat Becomes Prayer IV (Version 2)

Verse

Floor is wet where the bodies stack

Salt runs down like a river track

Knees go soft but the drum won't quit

Palms turned up, let the water hit

Pre-Chorus

Every drop that the skin lets go

Falls like something the bones should know

Hands above where the light gets thin

Empty out so the night comes in

Chorus

Sweat becomes prayer

Rising off the skin

Sweat becomes prayer

Let the flood begin

Sweat becomes prayer

Salt on tongue and air

Sweat becomes prayer

Give it, don't compare

Verse

Spine goes loose like a rope let down

Heartbeat loud as the whole crowd's sound

Ribs keep time with the low kick drum

Body speaks what the mind stayed dumb

Pre-Chorus

Every drop that the skin lets go

Falls like something the bones should know

Hands above where the light gets thin

Empty out so the night comes in

Chorus

Sweat becomes prayer

Rising off the skin

Sweat becomes prayer

Let the flood begin

Sweat becomes prayer

Salt on tongue and air

Sweat becomes prayer

Give it, don't compare

Bridge

No words left, just the wet on the chest

Lungs wide open, this is the rest

Not the falling, it's the letting fall

Water knows how to answer the call

Chorus

Sweat becomes prayer

Rising off the skin

Sweat becomes prayer

Let the flood begin

Sweat becomes prayer

Salt on tongue and air

Sweat becomes prayer

Give it, don't compare
