Jillette Johnson - Butterfly Catcher lyrics

Sweet short sigh I'm satisfied I'm in and out like ebbing tide I know how this story goes Fall like dead leaves when it blows Puffy eyes and harmless lies I just can't bear to compromise Tears feel wetter, lips kiss hard Lost like pennies in the yard We stayed in the bed and held on If I could tie your legs around my backbone Then I would carry the sensation All other love is imitation But my bu*terfly catcher is gonna let you go Moldy bread and airtight dread I can't unsay the things I said I don't want to face your friends Cut split ends to save our strands We stayed in the bed and held on If I could tie your legs around my backbone Then I would carry the sensation All other love is imitation But my bu*terfly catcher is gonna let you Get out while your spirit is strong And your heart's whole enough to open your arms And love large I got to be patient My body's violently vacant My bu*terfly catcher is gonna let you go
