You trace my name
In the dust on the window
Say
This town is small
But it's bigger than us right now
Your sweater smells
Like late night and cold smoke
You laugh too hard
So you don't have to choke

I'm holding on
To a paper town heart
Folded and torn
At the center and the start
If I let you in
Will you pull it apart?
Or write your name
On my paper town heart

Your phone lights up
With a face I don't recognize
You say
It's just a friend
But you don't meet my eyes
The movie plays
But we're both somewhere else
I'm in the scene
Where she learns to save herself

I'm holding on
To a paper town heart
Folded and torn
At the center and the start
If I let you in
Will you pull it apart?
Or write your name
On my paper town heart

I pick at the edge of the couch
Like I'm pulling at a thread in us (oh)
You say that you're tired again
I hear that you've had enough
Of this
Of me
Of us in-between
Of sleeping beside someone
You only see in your dreams

I'm letting go
Of this paper town heart
Unfolding the corners
To see every fragile mark
If I walk away
Will you just watch me depart?
Or call my name
Call my name
From your paper town heart
