What started out as desire, turned into a lover's trist
Who knew a moth and a flame could ever spawn a love like this
Now you need something to taste
Something just a little bit more sweet
But I am sour and more sour
Every time that our lips meet
[Bridge:]
If you're a butterfly I'm suicide by insecticide
If I am kerosene then you're a spark just begging to ignite
You'll wish you never met me
(Butterfly) Butterfly, fly by me
[Chorus:]
Never meant to cut so deep (Just enough to bleed)
Feel the sting as you get closer (Closer and closer to me)
Don't let hold something so delicate (Shattered with a word)
Don't say anything as we get closer and closer
Damn, this is gonna hurt
The ghost of a pathetic past is haunting me here more and more
The skeletons are laughing and
I mean through the closet door
And my past lovers share these covers
Sleeping with my enemies
Thoughts of others come between us
Trigger fits of jealousy
[Bridge]
[Chorus]
You can paint me pretty colors
And dress me how you like
I'm just a ugly moth in love
In a butterfly disguise
And I've been thinking about leaving since the day that we met
Since I don't get close when it's all over I'll just forget
'Cause I have seen the end so many times I've played it in my mind
And I am scared to death I never want to see your dark side
If you're a butterfly I'm suicide by insecticide
If I am kerosene then you're a spark just begging to ignite
You'll wish you never met me
(Butterfly) Butterfly, fly by me
Never meant to cut so deep (Just enough to bleed)
Feel the sting as you get closer (Closer and closer to me)
Don't let hold something so delicate (Shattered with a word)
Don't say anything as we get closer and closer
Damn, this is gonna hurt
Never meant to cut so deep (Just enough to bleed)
Don't say anything as we get closer and closer
Damn, this is gonna hurt
