Chapel of Our Bodies

Lyrics

Verse 1
Candles low in a rented hall
Boots by the door
Shirts on the wall
Twenty-five shadows in stained-glass glow
Every secret hunger on open show

Chorus
This is our midnight chapel of our bodies
Every ache
Every urge
Every oddity
Lay your shame on the floor
Let it breathe
We make a choir out of all we need

Verse 2
Leather on wrists
Soft as a psalm
Rope in a circle
Careful and calm
One man kneels
Hands on his head
Blessed by the fingers that mark him red

Chorus
This is our midnight chapel of our bodies
Every ache
Every urge
Every oddity
Lay your shame on the floor
Let it breathe
We make a choir out of all we need

Bridge
Some of us crave to be held too tight
Some of us beg to be led all night
Some of us blush when we lose control
Some of us want every man to know

Chorus
This is our midnight chapel of our bodies
Every ache
Every urge
Every oddity
Lay your shame on the floor
Let it breathe
We make a choir out of all we need
