Chapel Heat

(Verse 1)

Kissed you on the pulpit

With a curse on my tongue

Wrote psalms on your skin

Till the sermon was done

(Chorus)

There's heat in the chapel

Sweat in the pews

You read me like scripture—

But baby, I bruise

You called it salvation

I called it a dare—

But either way, you ended up

Breathless in prayer

(Verse 2)

Told me I was wicked—

I just purred and agreed

Let your hands shake on my hips

Like I was your need

(Bridge – Slow, smoky guitar slide)

The organ moans a warning

But we don't hear the call

In the hush between verses

We're both doomed to fall

(Verse 3)

Burning candles flicker

But your touch stays cold

I'm the sin you swallow

The story you're told

You begged for heaven—

Got a hellfire stare

Now you're lost and longing

In chapel heat's glare

(Final Chorus – Full band, growling with grit)

There's heat in the chapel

Sweat in the pews

You read me like scripture—

But baby, I bruise

You called it salvation

I called it a dare—

But either way, you ended up

Breathless in prayer

(Outro – Whispered, fading with reverb)

No altar can hold us—

We burn anywhere
