Verse
Salt runs warm down my collarbone
Palms open where the light comes through
Heat rising off a hundred backs
Turns this room to something true
Every rib knows the rhythm's name
Every breath falls into line
Skin remembers what the mind forgets
Body moves before design
Pre-Chorus
Hands go up when the low end drops
Nobody taught us, we just know
Something ancient in the offering
Sweat becomes the afterglow
Chorus
Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer
Lift up your palms, let go right here
Heat on the shoulder, breath in the air
Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer
Verse
Spine curls soft to the second kick
Shoulders shine like river stone
Strangers move like a single lung
Nobody dancing here alone
Fingers trace the heat we made
Rising slow past the rafters bare
Every muscle turns devotion
Every pulse becomes a prayer
Pre-Chorus
Hands go up when the low end drops
Nobody taught us, we just know
Something ancient in the offering
Sweat becomes the afterglow
Chorus
Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer
Lift up your palms, let go right here
Heat on the shoulder, breath in the air
Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer
Bridge
Not a word, just the heat we hold
Not a name, just the shape we make
Every body a small altar
Burning slow for the rhythm's sake
Chorus
Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer
Lift up your palms, let go right here
Heat on the shoulder, breath in the air
Skin is the prayer, skin is the prayer
