i was a caterpillar
i was warm
i was soft
i was long
like the lies i told myself
to keep myself alive
like the lies i told myself
to keep myself alive
i dodged the foot of one strange man
after another
i was never good at finding
a good lover
like the lies i told myself
to keep myself alive
like the lies i told myself
to keep myself alive
no one can set you free
butterfly
you get your wings
when you learn how to dance
i've danced for such a long time
but i never learned the steps
like the lies i told myself
to keep myself alive
like the lies i told myself
to keep myself alive
