Owen Temple - Make Something lyrics

rate me

Tighten up those strings

Dump your foot on the floor

Find some words to sing

And open up that door

Carved tree, ...wood,

Polished till it shine

Find a better way

Something that saves time

Go on like the way

That no one’s ever seen

Make some, make your own

There’s a statue waiting

Inside a blacker stone

Take a hammer and a nail

Build someone a home

Make something, make your own

That picture in your head

Put it on the wall

Ain't it on a cave

Hang it in the hall

Change the oil, change the tire

Do your best on the test

That’s all you can do

If it’s beautiful but useless

Don’t be ashamed

Show it to your people

Don’t forget to sign your name

Make some, make your own

There’s a statue waiting

Inside a blacker stone

Twist that knife

Find the right tone

Make something make your own

You gotta make something

Shake something up and go

Believe me when I say

The clock ain’t moving slow

That restlessness to see

What’s over the next hill

Keeps you up at night

It probably always will

So keep a fire burning on into the dark

Go on build an arc

Fall in love raise a child

Teach her right from wrong

Building her up raise her tough

Sao she can write a song

Make some, make your own

There’s a statue waiting

Inside a blacker stone

Take a hammer and a nail

Build someone a home

Make something, make your own

Make something shake something

Leave a mark so the world

Will understand

Make something

While you can

If you wanna live forever

You gotta make something man
