[Verse 1]
I'm building a skyline, I'm wondering where my surprise went
The blueprints keep changing, the cold keeps on breaking
It must be the intent

[Pre-Chorus]
Pick all my pockets and take what you need, all you'll find
Just leave me a shred of humanity, leave me my mind

[Chorus]
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on, hold on
No reason we can't have pipe dreams

[Verse 2]
Faced with a nation divided, engaged in reality star wars
There's no indication that we didn't crawl out like rats from the sewers

[Pre-Chorus]
Pick all my pockets and take what you need, all you'll find
Just leave me a shred of humanity, leave me my mind

[Chorus]
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on, hold on
No reason we can't have pipe dreams
[Bridge]
Infrastructure and pipeline
Now they're broken supply lines
All my vision is too clear
All that's hidden must be fear
Oh yeah
Must be fear

[Outro Chorus]
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on
Hold on to those pipe dreams
If I'm wrong
The worst is already happening
Hold on, hold on
No reason we can't have pipe dreams
