Ataris, The - Butterfly Lyrics

Submitted by: Neo (#20)
Current Rating: 5.00 (1 votes)
Yesterday I went outside,
With my mother's mason jar,
Caught a lovely butterfly.
When I woke up today,
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.
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't live with that,
Maybe I need fantasy.
A life of chasing butterfly.

I'm sorry for what I did,
I did what my body told me to.
I didn't mean to do you harm,
Everytime I pin down what I think I want
It slips away.
The ghost slips away.

I told you I would return,
When the robin makes his nest.
But I ain't ever coming back...
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
