Rachel Bay Jones, Jennifer Laura Thompson - Anybody Have a Map? Lyrics

Have you been writing those letters to yourself?
"Dear Evan Hansen, this is gonna be a good day and here's why"

I started one

Those letters are important, honey They're gonna help you build your confidence

I guess

Can we try to have an optimistic outlook, huh?
Can we buck up just enough to see the world won't fall apart?
Maybe this year, we decide
We're not giving up before we've tried
This year, we make a new start

Hey I know!
You can go around today and ask the other kids to sign your cast
How 'bout that?

Perfect

I'm proud of you already

Oh, good

Another stellar conversation for the scrapbook
Another stumble as I'm reaching for the right thing to say
I'm kinda coming up empty
Can't find my way to you

Does anybody have a map?
Anybody maybe happen to know how the hell to do this?
I don't know if you can tell
But this is me just pretending to know

So where's the map?
I need a clue
'Cause the scary truth is
I'm flying blind
And I'm making this up as I go

It's your senior year, Connor You are not missing the first day

I already said I'd go tomorrow

He doesn't listen Look at him, he's probably high

He's definitely high

I don't want you going to school high, Connor

Perfect, so then I won't go thanks, Mom!

Another masterful attempt ends with disaster

Interstate's already jammed

Pour another cup of coffee
And watch it all crash and burn

Connor finished the milk!

It's a puzzle, it's a maze
I tried to steer through it a million ways
But each day's another wrong turn

I better head out

If Connor's not ready, I'm leaving without him

Does anybody have a map?
Happen to know how the hell to do this?
I don't know if you can tell But this is me just pretending to know
So where's the map?
I need a clue
'Cause the scary truth is

I'm flying blind
I'm flying blind
I'm flying blind
I'm flying blind
And I'm making this up as I go
As I go
