[Intro]
You are a storm in a small glass
Spilling over the edge of my ribcage
Name carved under my tongue
Bitter
Burning sage
[Verse 1]
You walk through the door
And my bones rearrange
Organs trading places
To make you a space
My lungs fold like letters
Unsent
Unread
Heart shoves aside furniture
Clearing the bed
Maps melt off the walls
Just to trace your veins
Red rivers
Blue rivers
Flooding my frame
Every echo inside me
Leans toward your tread
House of my body
Rewired in red
[Pre-Chorus]
Come be the ghost in my marrow
The ink in my seed
In my shadow
I’m hollowed
I’m hallowed for you
(come through, come through)
[Chorus]
Build a cathedral of our bodies
Stone by skin
Bone by vow
Let your wild thunder pass through me
Here and now
Here and now
Plant your fever in my altar
Let it root
Let it climb
Let it feed
In this cathedral of our bodies
We are hunger
We are need
[Verse 2]
Nights split like pomegranates
Seeds in my hands
Future faces flicker
Like sparks in the fan
Your breath is a verdict
Against my restraint
I drink it like scripture
Torn from a saint
Spine opens
A spiral
Wet stairwell
Steep
Come down
Candle in hand
Into my deep
Every locked door inside me
Slides off its hinge
I’m a country at borderless dusk
Begging you in
[Pre-Chorus]
Come be the storm in my soil
The fuse in my pulse at the boil
I’m ready
Unsteady for you
(take root, break through)
[Chorus]
Build a cathedral of our bodies
Stone by skin
Bone by vow
Let your wild thunder pass through me
Here and now
Here and now
Plant your fever in my altar
Let it root
Let it climb
Let it feed
In this cathedral of our bodies
We are hunger
We are need
[Bridge]
I want your name
To grow a spine
Tiny hands
That reach for mine
A laugh that echoes
Soft and strange
Proof that blood
Can rearrange
Let the heavens lean in
While my cells catch fire
Every whispered maybe
Turns to choir
If there’s a door
Between our lives
Let it splinter
Let it slide
[Chorus]
Build a cathedral of our bodies
Stone by skin
Bone by vow
Let your wild thunder pass through me
Here and now
Here and now
Plant your fever in my altar
Let it root
Let it bloom
Let it breathe
In this cathedral of our bodies
We are hunger
We are seed
[Outro]
Stay inside this living chapel
’til the stained-glass morning bleeds
In the hush between our heartbeats
Something tiny
Starts to breathe
