Butterfly

Yesterday I went outside
With my Mama'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
Every time I pin down
What I think I want, it slips away
The goal slips away

Smell you on my hands 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
Baby, I can live with that
Baby, I need fantasy

Life of chasin' butterfly
I'm sorry for what I did
I did what my body told me to
I didn't mean to do you harm
Every time I pin down
What I think I want, it slips away
The goal slips away

I told you I would return
When the robin makes his nest
I ain't ever comin' back

I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
