What started out as desire, turned into a lover's tryst

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

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, float on 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 me hold something so delicate (I'll shatter it with a word)

Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer

Damn, this is gonna hurt

Comes to pathetic past is haunting me you more and more

Skeletons are laughing at me through the closet door

And now past lovers share these covers sleeping with my enemy

Thoughts of others come between us trigger fits of jealousy

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, float on 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 me hold something so delicate (I'll shatter it with a word)

Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer

Damn, this is gonna hurt

You can`t paint me pretty colors

And dress me how you like

I`m just an ugly moth in love

In a butterfly disguise

Cause I`ve been thinking about leaving since the day that we

met

Cause if I don't get close when its all over ill 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 wanna 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, float on 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 me hold something so delicate (I'll shatter it with a word)

Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer

Damn, this is gonna hurt

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 me hold something so delicate (I'll shatter it with a word)

Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer

Damn, this is gonna hurt
