The Butterfly Killer
I missed him when he was away
I felt everything when he was around
All it took was a "hey"
To make my heart start to pound
Hadn't felt them in years
A thousand butterflies with each kiss
But it would all end in tears
I wish his first "hi" I'd miss
His feelings were locked in a cage
He cared only for himself
He would spit words in a rage
Made me feel bad about myself
But this magic was so rare
I tried to keep it alive, to fight
I tried my best, I swear
But it takes two to make a thing go right
And so in the end
We couldn't agree on anything
What we had, I couldn't mend
So I said "Goodbye, darling"
I missed him when he was away
But felt nothing when he was around
He killed the magic
