Turn the Shape Around

[Verse 1]
You set the blank page by the window
I bring the clay, you bring the code
We trade the tools we thought we needed
And find a door inside the road

[Pre-Chorus]
Let the first attempt be crooked
Let the old map lose its hold

[Chorus]
Try another way, turn the shape around
There’s a wider world beyond the familiar ground
Every unfamiliar thing can teach your hands to see
Make a little room for what you might become and be

[Verse 2]
A camera catches what we missed there
A borrowed phrase unlocks a wall
The lesson isn’t who was right first
It’s how we learned to start at all

[Pre-Chorus]
Keep the question open longer
Let the strange idea unfold

[Chorus]
Try another way, turn the shape around
There’s a wider world beyond the familiar ground
Every unfamiliar thing can teach your hands to see
Make a little room for what you might become and be

[Bridge]
Paint the plan in sounds and numbers
Build the model out of thread
If the answer changes shape now
Follow where the new lines lead

[Final Chorus]
Try another way, turn the shape around
There’s a wider world beyond the familiar ground
Every unfamiliar thing can teach your hands to see
Make a little room for what you might become and be

[Outro]
One more door, one more beginning
Hands still learning, mind still willing
