I write sad songs About missing your hands in mine And your breath on my neck But I've never known it I've known no one at all And everyday I'm a butterfly Busting from a cocoon And by dawn those wings They've fallen from me And I'm no one at all I sat in my room alone Longing, fawning Over superheroes and singer-songwriter types Cause I love what I hate the most The little parts of me and what I'll never be I wrote a letter to a friend, to a lover, to a foe Licked the seal, kissed its flap, And sent it on its way One returned, hollowed through, And there's two out there I'll never be

Memoirs Over Love
I write sad songs About missing your hands in mine And your breath on my neck But I've never known it I've known no one at all And everyday I'm a butterfly Busting from a cocoon And by dawn those wings They've fallen from me And I'm no one at all I sat in my room alone Longing, fawning Over superheroes and singer-songwriter types Cause I love what I hate the most The little parts of me and what I'll never be I wrote a letter to a friend, to a lover, to a foe Licked the seal, kissed its flap, And sent it on its way One returned, hollowed through, And there's two out there I'll never be
nothing else to feel at all
