Tomorrow, Wearing Yesterday

[Verse 1]
You wore that jacket inside out
Drew a map no one could read
They called your little questions strange
You called them seeds

You built a paper airplane
From the memo they threw away
It cleared the schoolyard fence
And kept on flying anyway

[Pre-Chorus]
They said, “Come back down to earth”
You said, “Give it one more turn”
While they were guarding every door
You found a window they ignored

[Chorus]
We’re the weird ones, waving from ahead
Making room for what they haven’t said
They call it odd till everybody knows
The wildest little idea is the way the future grows
We’re the weird ones, let the whole room see
A little out of step, a little more free
They’ll catch the rhythm when the moment’s right
We were just tomorrow, wearing yesterday tonight

[Verse 2]
You brought a lunchbox full of wires
To a town that liked its plans in ink
Made a lamp from broken toys
And taught the old town hall to think

They laughed at your bright green shoes
Till the muddy road turned into a field
You don’t need a vote to start a change
You need a thing you won’t conceal

[Pre-Chorus]
They said, “That’s not how it’s done”
You said, “Then let’s make a different one”
While they were counting every doubt
You let the next idea out

[Chorus]
We’re the weird ones, waving from ahead
Making room for what they haven’t said
They call it odd till everybody knows
The wildest little idea is the way the future grows
We’re the weird ones, let the whole room see
A little out of step, a little more free
They’ll catch the rhythm when the moment’s right
We were just tomorrow, wearing yesterday tonight

[Bridge]
Keep the crooked drawing
Keep the homemade plan
Keep the question in your pocket
Keep the paint upon your hands
When the room says, “Not yet”
Let your small brave answer be:
“Watch what happens next”

[Final Chorus]
We’re the weird ones, waving from ahead
Making room for what they haven’t said
They call it odd till everybody knows
The wildest little idea is the way the future grows
We’re the weird ones, let the whole room see
A little out of step, a little more free
They’ll catch the rhythm when the moment’s right
We were just tomorrow, wearing yesterday tonight

[Outro]
Tomorrow, wearing yesterday
Tomorrow, wearing yesterday
They’ll catch up when the moment’s right
