Make a Little History

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Silk on the sleeve, gold at the seam You walk in quiet and rearrange the room A little crooked grin, a steady gaze The whole place turns before you say a thing [Pre-Chorus] You don't ask permission You don't wait your turn One spark in your fingers And the old rules burn [Chorus] Make a little history tonight Turn the lock, step into the light All that we were, all that we could be Moves when you move, moves when you move Make a little history tonight Take the long way, take it in stride No borrowed crown, no borrowed name You came to change the shape of the game [Verse 2] Red on the lips, dust on your shoes A bright brass key and nothing left to prove You know the price of every open door Still you walk through like you've been here before [Pre-Chorus] You don't ask permission You don't wait your turn One spark in your fingers And the old rules burn [Chorus] Make a little history tonight Turn the lock, step into the light All that we were, all that we could be Moves when you move, moves when you move Make a little history tonight Take the long way, take it in stride No borrowed crown, no borrowed name You came to change the shape of the game [Bridge] Let the polished portraits watch Let the old clocks lose their hands We were never made to fit In the margins of their plans One step, then another Hear the whole room understand [Final Chorus] Make a little history tonight Turn the lock, step into the light All that we were, all that we could be Moves when you move, moves when you move Make a little history tonight Take the long way, take it in stride No borrowed crown, no borrowed name You came to change the shape of the game [Outro] You came to change the shape You came to change the shape of the game
