This World Is Made of Paper

Should we pay the toll?

for every black hole

should we pay a fee

incessantly, obsessively

Should we pay to talk?

as we're eating chalk

but they can't make us pay

no not today, no not this way

This world is made of paper

if we move they'll draw us smaller and smaller

Should we pay them back

for every heart attack?

or should we wait and see?

depressingly, in a minor key

Should we pay up front?

should we be so blunt?

I bet our check will bounce

and drop in weight, with every ounce

This world is made of paper

if we don't move they'll draw us smalled and smaller
