Now We're Making History (From the Odd Archive)

-- Auto Lyrics --

Intro

Mm

Mm-hmm

Oh

Verse 1

Bronze light through the morning glass

Your name a restless prayer on my tongue

I would trade my years for one slow breath

Love so deep the windows start to hum

Pre-Chorus

But wait

The kettle's boiling over

Toast is burning black

I think I left the stove on

Chorus

And now we're making history

People aren't ready for this sound

A thousand violins and your sweet kiss

It's the loudest thing I've ever found

Verse 2

Philosophy of empty plates

Descartes inside the microwave

I think therefore I heat it up again

The traffic crawls like molten lead

My kingdom for a single lane

Somewhere a dragon owes me rent

Pre-Chorus

Breakfast was a metaphor

For everything I never said

Now the bills are singing back

Chorus

And now we're making history

People aren't ready for this sound

A thousand violins and your sweet kiss

A hundred choirs rising from the ground

(Ah-ah-ah-ah)

Bridge

We could be forever

We could be a footnote

Underneath the thunder

Standing in the rain

Guitar Solo

Verse 3

I loved you in the checkout line

I loved you in the parking lot

The dragon sent a letter back

It said pay me what you got

The metaphysics of the price tag

Screaming from the pharmacy shelf

Pre-Chorus

But baby you're the only truth

The only invoice of my heart

The only song that makes no sense

Chorus

And now we're making history

People aren't ready for this sound

A thousand violins and your sweet kiss

A hundred choirs rising from the ground

The bells are ringing out of key

The synths are having a war

This will replace Bohemian Rhapsody

I can't take it anymore
