I told u I was trouble I told I was pain you told me that you loved me and promised you would stay I'm lying under paper stars the knots in my stomach are like dark butterflies In a cold night I was left by the door you told me it was all too much "I can't do this anymore" and I watched you go away you left as quickly as you came now I still sleep at the right side of the bed and I ran my fingers on the sheets where once your body laid I wonder why I still leave room for you, sweet lover all the pain every crack of our memories spinning around my head I know they will come back but why don't you bring them back? I'm lying under paper stars the knots in my stomach are like dark butterflies In a cold night I was left by the door you told me it was all too much too heavy "I can't do this anymore" I'm not ready and I watched you go away you left as quickly as you came

Dark Butterflies
I told u I was trouble I told I was pain you told me that you loved me and promised you would stay I'm lying under paper stars the knots in my stomach are like dark butterflies In a cold night I was left by the door you told me it was all too much "I can't do this anymore" and I watched you go away you left as quickly as you came now I still sleep at the right side of the bed and I ran my fingers on the sheets where once your body laid I wonder why I still leave room for you, sweet lover all the pain every crack of our memories spinning around my head I know they will come back but why don't you bring them back? I'm lying under paper stars the knots in my stomach are like dark butterflies In a cold night I was left by the door you told me it was all too much too heavy "I can't do this anymore" I'm not ready and I watched you go away you left as quickly as you came
