Lyrics

0:19Swallow purple terror candy
0:24Don't forget to breathe
0:28Sickened by the wanting
0:33And drowning from the need
0:38This dichromatic vision
0:43Of one who does not care
0:48To sipping cocktail sedatives
0:52Two months to hide somewhere
0:56Butterflies butterflies
1:07Cut the stomach out and hand it over
1:15Butterflies butterflies
1:26My heart will be the bridge that you walk over
1:41The wolf has caught the chicken
1:45And now I feel unsteady
1:50Emotions on the blink again
1:55So kick me when you're ready
2:00Here lies a violet coffin
2:04The death of my control
2:09Along with all my skeletons
2:14They put them in a hole
2:18Butterflies butterflies
2:29Cut the stomach out and hand it over
2:37Butterflies butterflies
2:48My heart will be the bridge that you walk over
3:02Sickened by the notion
3:07I give myself again
3:12Choking on the bullet
3:16The gun that's found a friend
3:21So raise your glass to sorrow
3:26And drink to all the pain
3:31Tie a silver ribbon around
3:36The pieces that remain
3:40Butterflies butterflies
3:50Cut the stomach out and hand it over
3:59Butterflies butterflies
4:09My heart will be the bridge that you walk over
4:17That you walk over
4:22That you walk over
Swallow purple terror candy
Don't forget to breathe
Sickened by the wanting
And drowning from the need
This dichromatic vision
Of one who does not care
To sipping cocktail sedatives
Two months to hide somewhere
Butterflies  butterflies
Cut the stomach out and hand it over
Butterflies  butterflies
My heart will be the bridge that you walk over
The wolf has caught the chicken
And now I feel unsteady
Emotions on the blink again
So kick me when you're ready
Here lies a violet coffin
The death of my control
Along with all my skeletons
They put them in a hole
Butterflies  butterflies
Cut the stomach out and hand it over
Butterflies  butterflies
My heart will be the bridge that you walk over
Sickened by the notion
I give myself again
Choking on the bullet
The gun that's found a friend
So raise your glass to sorrow
And drink to all the pain
Tie a silver ribbon around
The pieces that remain
Butterflies  butterflies
Cut the stomach out and hand it over
Butterflies  butterflies
My heart will be the bridge that you walk over
That you walk over
That you walk over
