Let the Whole Room Know

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You kicked the door at quarter past nine Boot heels ringing on the factory line Red jacket, torn sleeve, grin like a dare You said, “If we’re going, we’re going out there” [Pre-Chorus] We’ve got one shot and a tank half full A paper map and a headstrong pull [Chorus] Raise your hands, let the whole room know We came alive when they told us no Heart on fire, feet on the ground We’re still standing when the walls come down Raise your hands, let the whole room know [Verse 2] Your brother’s old amp rattled the glass We sang every word as the night rolled past At the county line, we split our last dime You laughed, “We’ll be legends by closing time” [Pre-Chorus] No golden road, no velvet rope Just your wild heart and a little hope [Chorus] Raise your hands, let the whole room know We came alive when they told us no Heart on fire, feet on the ground We’re still standing when the walls come down Raise your hands, let the whole room know [Bridge] When the lights come up and the set is done When the last bus leaves and the morning comes I’ll remember your voice cutting through the crowd Two small-town kids, singing far too loud [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] Raise your hands, let the whole room know We came alive when they told us no Heart on fire, feet on the ground We’re still standing when the walls come down Raise your hands, let the whole room know We came alive when they told us no [Outro] Still standing, still standing Let the whole room know
