Its a good year for a murder
shes praying to jesus, she's pulling the trigger
there's no tears, cause hes not here
she washes her hands, and she fixes the dinner
two men will be coming to rush her away
no ones so sure if her crime had a reason
reasons like seasons
they constantly change
and the seasons of last year
like reasons have floated away
away with this spilt milk
away with this dirty dish water, away
seventeen years, and all that he gave was a daughter
"it's me and the moon," she says
i got no trouble with that
but i am a butterfly, you wouldn't let me die
"it's me and the moon," she says
and it's over, but it just started
the blood stained the carpet
her heart like a crystal
shes lucid and departed
a life left behind, she can find in her mind gone away
away with these nightmares
away with suburbia
shake down away
you marry a rule and
you give up your soul til you break down
"it's me and the moon," she says
"i got no trouble with that, but i am a butterfly,
you wouldn't let me die"
"it's me and the moon," she says
but what do you say we go for a ride?
what do you say we get high?
but i'm so tired of days that feel like the night
"it's me and the moon," she says
and i got no trouble with that, but i am a butterfly,
you wouldn't let me die
i am a butterfly, i am a butterfly, i am a butterfly

Another lonely night in Amersterdam
And stars are coming out in waves
I miss my Miss America in Park Hotel
And I'm too stoned to call it a day
When everything you wanted
Seems to hide behind your eyes
And I'm locked in my hotel room
Thinking over our goodbyes
I will write this down for you
So you can read this
I will hold my breath for you
Till you can feel it
Another lonely night in Amsterdam
And water's moving through the sound
The blood is boiling in my veins
and the food I can't keep down
And I don't care if you don't love me
And I don't care if you won't change
I could live inside the shadow that I cast on you
And the myth that you would stay
And I'll be home before the morning comes,
You won't have to be alone
I will write this down for you
So you can read it
I will hold my breath for you
Till I can't feel it
You don't have to see me this way,
Cause this way I'm okay
I will write this down, I will write this down
Oh love, I'm tangled up again
Oh love, when does this twisting end?
When does this twisting end?
I will write this down for you
So you can read it
I will hold my breath for you
Till I can't feel it
You won't have to see me this way
Cause this way I'm okay
I will write this down for you,
So you can read it...
