There are butterflies floating in my stomach and living in my skin except that they're muddy and jaded and wet The butterflies are moths and bats and spirits A hazy grin on a foggy Tuesday and I hope you bleed for being responsible for the scars on someone else's skin I craved the color, a vintage film but now I'm graying, A faded stopwatch stopped in time "No" is never "yes" because a body is a body meant for soul and a body is not yours to control

Jaded Butterflies
There are butterflies floating in my stomach and living in my skin except that they're muddy and jaded and wet The butterflies are moths and bats and spirits A hazy grin on a foggy Tuesday and I hope you bleed for being responsible for the scars on someone else's skin I craved the color, a vintage film but now I'm graying, A faded stopwatch stopped in time "No" is never "yes" because a body is a body meant for soul and a body is not yours to control
