Skin and Sanctuary (Version 2)

Verse

Palms open where the bassline lands

Concrete warm beneath bare soles

Every pore becomes a doorway

Heat is asking to come home

Pre-Chorus

Feel the skin forget its borders

Feel the air move through my chest

Something older than my shadow

Rising up through every breath

Chorus

Skin is the sanctuary

Body is the open door

We are burning through the boundary

Right here on the floor

Verse

Sweat runs silver down my spine

Strangers' shoulders press like prayer

Nobody's counting hours here

Time dissolves into the air

Pre-Chorus

Feel the skin forget its borders

Feel the air move through my chest

Something older than my shadow

Rising up through every breath

Chorus

Skin is the sanctuary

Body is the open door

We are burning through the boundary

Right here on the floor

Bridge

No wall left between the drum and me

No name left to hold onto

Just this pulse beneath the surface

Turning flesh to residue

Chorus

Skin is the sanctuary

Body is the open door

We are burning through the boundary

Right here on the floor
