Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse 1] Marble halls and amber chandeliers
I walked them in my patent leather shoes
The notes were all arranged before I came
A script I never got to choose
[Pre-Chorus] But the rhythm in my pocket
Keeps tapping out its own design
And the bassline in my bloodstream
Won't settle for the line
[Chorus] Turn the page and turn it loose
Watch the starlings break the noose
Every measure wants a crack
So I'm bending every fact
Turn the page and turn it loose
[Verse 2] The metronome keeps counting out
A number I was never taught
My fingers find a different scale
A language that was never bought
[Pre-Chorus] And the groove inside my shadow
Keeps slipping past the bar
The harmony is breaking
Like a window full of stars
[Chorus] Turn the page and turn it loose
Watch the starlings break the noose
Every measure wants a crack
So I'm bending every fact
Turn the page and turn it loose
