Skin Meets Concrete lyrics
Verse
Soles find the grain in the concrete
Floor still warm from the feet before mine
Heat climbs up through my ankles
Dust and glitter, hard to define
Every crack in the floor got a story
Every step got a hundred behind
Palms down low when I bend to it
Skin meets concrete, one long line
Pre-Chorus
Feel it rise through the arches
Feel it climb through the bone
Floor keeps giving what I give it
Nobody dancing alone
Chorus
Skin meets concrete, concrete meets skin
Current running out and in
Skin meets concrete, concrete meets skin
Floor don't end and the night don't end
Verse
Toes grip tighter when the bass drops
Heel to concrete, concrete to spine
Sweat falls down and joins the water
Somebody left here one at a time
Floor been holding heat since sundown
Holding weight of every design
Knees bend low to take what it's giving
Skin meets concrete, one long line
Pre-Chorus
Feel it rise through the arches
Feel it climb through the bone
Floor keeps giving what I give it
Nobody dancing alone
Chorus
Skin meets concrete, concrete meets skin
Current running out and in
Skin meets concrete, concrete meets skin
Floor don't end and the night don't end
Bridge
Ground was here before the sound was
Ground will stay when the sound is gone
Every foot that ever found it
Left a little current on
Chorus
Skin meets concrete, concrete meets skin
Current running out and in
Skin meets concrete, concrete meets skin
Floor don't end and the night don't end
