Butterfly

Butterfly

What am I?

I wish I was a butterfly I'd fly And fly

Until it was my time to die

It's creeping in again

I know what I really am

No more pretty, purple,

Peaceful butterfly

Simple life

If I were a butterfly

I'd fly and fly

Until it was my time to die

It's creeping in again

I know What I really am

No more pretty, purple,

Peaceful butterfly

Come see the blood that's in my bed

Come hear the things

That nobody talks about

Shut up your mouth

Shame on you, shame on me

Look at me

I wish I was a honey bee

I'd be

Anything, anything other than

The things I have been

I slip out of my skin

So I don't have to do it again

But just a passing thought

And your filth is seeping in

Come scrub my hands

They won't come clean

Come sit with me

While the walls press in on me

Shut Off that light

Shame on you, shame on me

Come see the blood that's in my bed

Come hear the things

That nobody talks about

Shut up your mouth

Shame on you, shame

Come scrub my hands

They won't come clean

Come sit with me

While the walls press in on me

Shut Off that light

Shame on you, shame on me
