Lyrics

Found it in my coat pocket
A parking ticket folded into wings
Don't remember making it
Sharp enough to leave a crease
On the pad of my thumb
I've been pressing it all morning
Tiny ridge that won't go flat
Funny how the smallest fold
Can teach your skin a shape like that
Thought I was building a ladder
Turns out I was stacking reasons to stay
Kicked the pile over Wednesday
Let the weight go
Let it
Crease
On my
Thumb
Stood in the stairwell after
Fourteen floors of quiet
Watched the light shift on the landing
Like it had somewhere to be and I didn't
Held the paper plane against the window
Didn't throw it
Didn't need to
Some things only have to almost fly
To prove they could
Not higher
Not further
Just less of what I was
The ground left first, not me
Ground
Left
First
I keep pressing the crease into my thumb
Like if I hold the shape long enough
It remembers how to lift
Without me folding it again
And maybe that's the whole thing
Not the flying
Just the crease that says you tried
The ground left first
Not me
