BLUEPRINTS

Oh, I'm a sucker for Polaroids
The ones you leave in your dash
You always call it a big, big choice
Making sure it's one you'd show to your dad
But he hasn't called in six long years
And you claim it never brought you to tears
But I've seen the little girl in your eyes
And I'm sure she wouldn't mind if he did

You're the constant in your life
But if you'd give me the blueprints to your design
It wouldn't be that bad if you're into it
I still imagine a timeline where we undo all the
Bad days, made better
At some point you gotta give in and loosen up the tether
Hold half, I'll hold the other
Taking a hand should give you more than you ever had
Should give you more than you had

Oh, you're the first to say, "I know your voice"
You've always known me like that
But, if the band asked for a loud, loud noise
You'd be the last one to give it right back
So you buckle up and make it clear
That you're capable and more than sincere
But if you'd let me in for more than a chime
There's a chance you might find more if you did

You're the constant in your life
But if you'd give me the blueprints to your design
It wouldn't be that bad if you're into it
I still imagine a timeline where we undo all the
Bad days, made better
At some point you gotta give in and loosen up the tether
Hold half, I'll hold the other
Taking a hand should give you more than you ever

Thought it would cuz I'm someone
Who used to think that all I need and wanted was a
Good streak of perfect ways to offset the grip that I was holding
From a cliff I built, let me take you down that hill

You're the constant in your life
But if you'd give me the blueprints to your design
It wouldn't be that bad if you're into it
I still imagine a timeline where we undo all the
Bad days, made better
At some point you gotta give in and loosen up the tether
Hold half, I'll hold the other
Taking a hand should give you more than you ever had
Should give you more than you had
Should give you more than you had
