[Verse 1] I walked in wearing a paper crown Badge on my shirt, heart out of place Neon swords over folding chairs Somebody laughed, and I was there [Pre-Chorus] All the names they mispronounced Found a rhythm in the crowd [Chorus] Here is the room that knows my name Hands in the air like a signal flame Every lost kid, every grown-up dream Drawn in ink on a wide-screen beam Here is the room that knows my name [Verse 2] They said our stories were side-street smoke Too strange to sell, too loud to quote But tables filled and the turnstiles sang A million doors from a small bell rang [Stop-time Break] Who put us in the margin? [Beat of silence] We built the main stage out of no. [Chorus] Here is the room that knows my name Hands in the air like a signal flame Every lost kid, every grown-up dream Drawn in ink on a wide-screen beam Here is the room that knows my name [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] Call: If you never saw us coming Response: Look around now Call: If you never heard us humming Response: Hear the ground now [Building] From the lobby to the skyline, from the sketchbook to the street We turn a rented weekend into a city with a beat [Final Chorus] Here is the room that knows my name Hands in the air like a signal flame Every lost kid, every grown-up dream Drawn in ink on a wide-screen beam Here is the room that knows my name [Outro] Leave the lights on when the night gets thin Somebody new is walking in
