Aftermath Delta (Version 2)

Verse

Jaw unclenches on the second breath

Ribs pull wide where the bassline left

Dust still clings to the arch of your feet

Night goes quiet like a folded sheet

Palms lie flat on the concrete cool

Counting down what the dark still ruled

Throat runs dry from the hours you gave

Now the color climbs up off the pave

Pre-Chorus

Let the pulse drop slow to the color's pace

Let the shoulders open, let the light find space

Every muscle spent but the chest stays wide

Waiting on the gold to step inside

Chorus

Skin meets sunrise

Let it in

Skin meets sunrise

Under skin

Skin meets sunrise

Hold the glow

Skin meets sunrise

Let it go

Verse

Spine unfolds one bone at a time

Heat comes up through the broken rhyme

Eyes still heavy but the head tips back

Gold moves in where the grey was cracked

Tongue remembers the salt, the shout

Body softens, lets the noise go out

Wrists go loose where the beat once lived

Now the morning's the only thing you give

Pre-Chorus

Let the pulse drop slow to the color's pace

Let the shoulders open, let the light find space

Every muscle spent but the chest stays wide

Waiting on the gold to step inside

Chorus

Skin meets sunrise

Let it in

Skin meets sunrise

Under skin

Skin meets sunrise

Hold the glow

Skin meets sunrise

Let it go

Bridge

Your palm finds mine on the warming ground

Two chests rising without a sound

No more counting what the night has cost

Just the light and the breath we crossed

Chorus

Skin meets sunrise

Let it in

Skin meets sunrise

Under skin

Skin meets sunrise

Hold the glow

Skin meets sunrise

Let it go
