Paper Cranes

[Verse 1] I held your words like glass Careful in my palms You said you'd stay till morning Then you were gone by dawn The cup still sits there Half full, half lost I count the tiny cracks now And what your silence cost [Pre-Chorus] I kept the door unlatched Like faith could make you brave But every little promise Folded wrong and stayed that way [Chorus] You left me with paper cranes Paper cranes All my hopes in the rain In the rain I gave you my name My name You gave me the ache The ache [Verse 2] The room remembers everything The chair, the porch, the train Even the thin blue dishes Hold the shape of pain I wore your maybe for a while Like it was something true Now it hangs inside my chest Too loose to carry you [Pre-Chorus] I kept the door unlatched Like faith could make you brave But every little promise Folded wrong and stayed that way [Chorus] You left me with paper cranes Paper cranes All my hopes in the rain In the rain I gave you my name My name You gave me the ache The ache [Bridge] Maybe I should hate you Maybe I should run But disappointment lingers Long after damage comes So I bow to the hurt now Let it pass through me Like winter through the plum tree Like salt through the sea [Final Chorus] You left me with paper cranes Paper cranes All my hopes in the rain In the rain I gave you my name My name You gave me the ache The ache Paper cranes Paper cranes I still hear your shade Your shade
