"Butterfly"


Yesterday I went outside 
With my momma's mason jar 
Caught a lovely Butterfly 
When I woke up today 
And looked in on my fairy pet 
She had withered all away 
No more sighing in her breast 
I'm sorry for what I did 
I did what my body told me to 
I didn't mean to do you harm 
But everytime I pin down what I think I want 
it slips away - the ghost slips away 
I smell you on my hand for days 
I can't wash away your scent 
if I'm a dog then you're a bitch 
I guess you're as real as me 
maybe I can live with that 
maybe I need fantasy 
a life of chasing Butterfly 
I told you I would return 
When the robin makes his nest 
but I ain't never comin' back
