Butterflyman

(The sun is still shining)

Tempo, Seven Four

(Human what the fuck)

Four Four

I'm not a cupid cause I'm a butterfly in her stomach
I flutter with dynamite, make her shutter
Eyes, stuck in mine, in her head
A c-canary is cryin'
A warnin' she's not buyin' (buyin')
My rent expired, but I'm still the wishlist
At lease there's interest, I guess that's worth tryin'
(Double entendre)
A flirt spurt, I gather words to talk to her
An early bird that hurt the earthworm before hockin' dirt
She's not averse of the verbs I'm murdering
Immersion of verses in her ears I'm murmuring
Butterfly's emerging
(Switch)
Want the crown but the sound is too loud
Turn it down- the volume
Killed the words from my mouth
Running out, from all you
All this love turned to blue
Maybe a little cyan

I'm the Butterflyman
Wit' lullaby's that Neverland,
Boy I'm lost with Peter Pan
Love flyin' overhead
Don't toy I lose marbles
Wendy's emotions aren't bottled
This Captain more than
All these empty bottles

But this is my only shot 'fore another drink
The more that goes down now the less I need to think
Liquid courage, the bourbon burning my burden
See the light coming
(Get me out the darkness)
I'm definitely fluttering
She separately grabs my arms and then
Stumbles around squeezing, cuddlin'
My right-hand holds her hip tight
Now my voice ain't fumbling
Fingers pressed by her lip
(Shining)
Told me if we can't be together she gonna die
I just want to be the butterfly
In her life, no lie
Hotline deny the ride
Decide your side, head high
I'm fine tonight, get by with my 9 lives
Say no, I stand tall and let go
She pulls back and tears flood like cyclones
I'm flapping circles in her storm just hoping
My wings are fallin' off, I'm finally finishing floatin'

I'm the fucking Butterflyman
My nightmares are the chances I killed when I fled (fled)
Needless to say I've lost my marbles feeling needles
And objects- these toxins I'm rocking
Show-stopping
I'm swaying, wit' bottles fall-less
Next to a goddess but I'm godless
Got a feeling that I'm heartless
The sparks part way move the clouds
And paint the sky's grey, Captain?
Marvel-less back in the chrysalis
Getting darker and dissonant
I am done being an artist

She doesn't want to be here anymore
Her goal isn't just walking out the door
I don't want to stay and watch her hit the floor or overdose
Wings all closed I left the place
This bass hits harder than a body
Or Monty Python every limb a-gonny
Need a gurney this party over
I'm fresh sober, a buzz kill I know man
Need to call a friend
I left her holdin' out for the moment
