[Verse 1] Pin the silver number to my jacket seam Powder on the collar, lights above the beam Every breath is measured, every step is clean Tonight the room will learn exactly what I mean [Pre-Chorus] Curtain holding still One heartbeat, then we rise I can feel the judges lean Before they open their eyes [Chorus] Watch me take the stage Watch the whole room turn Every move is razor-bright Every lesson learned Raise the crystal high Let the final count begin We came dressed to win tonight And we are walking in [Verse 2] Gold dust on the mirror, pins along the sleeve The band is in position, no reason to believe In anything but practice, muscle, nerve, and heat I hear the first applause before I find the beat [Pre-Chorus] Hold the silence tight Then cut it with a smile When the spotlight finds my face I’ll make it stay awhile [Chorus] Watch me take the stage Watch the whole room turn Every move is razor-bright Every lesson learned Raise the crystal high Let the final count begin We came dressed to win tonight And we are walking in [Bridge] If the floor gives way, I’ll turn it into flight If the room goes cold, I’ll make it warm with light No borrowed crown, no accidental shine I built this moment one rehearsal at a time [Final Chorus] Watch me take the stage Watch the whole room turn Every move is razor-bright Every lesson learned Raise the crystal high Let the final count begin We came dressed to win tonight And we are walking in [Outro] Take the picture, mark the date Leave the trophy by the gate We gave them wonder, we gave them fire One more bow, then we climb higher
