Yesterday I went outside

with my momma's mason jar


caught a lovely butterfly


when I woke up today

looked in on my fairy pet


she had withered all away


no more sighing in her breast




I'm sorry for what I did


I did what my body told me to

I didn't mean to do you harm


everytime I pin down what I think I want


it slips away

the ghost slips away





I smell you on my hand for days

I can't wash away your scent


if I'm a dog then you're a (*##$




I guess you're as real as me


maybe I can live with that






maybe I need fantasies

a life of chasing butterfly





I'm sorry for what I did

I did what my body told me to


I didn't mean to do you harm


everytime I pin down what I think I want

it slips away


the ghost slips away




I told you I would return


when the robin makes his nest


but I ain't never coming back

I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry
