Butterflies Instead -

I lock the door and lock my head

And dream of butterflies instead

The beauty of their colored wings

The trees, the grass and pretty things

Imagination fills the void of my existence

Daddy says «I love you girl, it’s not your fault

Your mom and me don’t get along»

I know he’s lying, I know there’s no such thing as inexplicable

I hear, forget, this world instead

And suddenly the sun comes up

That’s when my pets all come alive

They cheer me up and tell me

Everything’s alright

Stuffed animals are always right

My favorite song, my favorite show

I wonder if they even know

And if they care or if they even notice

I am standing there

That’s when my pets all come alive

They cheer me up and tell me

Everything’s alright

Stuffed animals are always…

Everything’s alright

Stuffed animals are always right

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

My eyes all red, the baby’s wet

And someone has to get that phone

I want my pets to come alive

And cheer me up and tell me

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

Alright

I lock the door and lock my head

And dream of butterflies instead
