Butterflies

Butterflies

Always around at a surprise

Always around

When you’re getting the eyes

Always around

Never once in disguise

Butterflies

 

Butterflies

Meeting your homecoming date

Then at the wedding date

At the move all the way

Across the states

At the moment when

You finally get to see

Your best mate

Butterflies

 

Butterflies

When you get the first dog

That you’ve ever known

When your dog ran away

And just won’t come home

And he comes back to cuddle

While you’re alone with patron

Butterflies

 

Butterflies

When the demons visit

When the weed sets in

And lifts all the spirits

When you’re drowning

In the flames

Of all that’s explicit

Butterflies

 

Butterflies

When you got the news

That Juice died

When you got the news

That Kobe died

When you laid with your aunt

As she left you and died

Butterflies

 

Butterflies

When it all flashes

Before your eyes

And all the blood you’ve pumped

Finally dries

And all left to do

Is to hear your kids cry

Butterflies

 

Butterflies

When you say hello

When you have to let go

In every single metamorphosis

That you’ll ever undergo

Butterflies

 

For all of the better

And all that ends up worse

For as long as we’re breathing

Butterflies
