Cauterize

What started out as desire turned into a lover's tryst.
Who knew a moth and a flame could ever spawn a love like this
Now you need something
To taste something just a little bit more sweet
But I am sour and more sour every time that our lips meet
If you're a butterfly, I'm suicide by insecticide
If I am kerosene, then you're a spark just begging to ignite
You'll wish you never met me
Butterfly, butterfly, float on by me
Never meant to cut so deep
Just enough to bleed
Feel the sting as you get closer
Closer and closer to me
Don't let me hold something so delicate
I'll shatter it with a word
Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer
Damn this is gonna hurt.
The ghost of pathetic past is haunting me here more and more
Skeletons are laughing at me through the closet door
And now past lovers share these covers
Sleeping with my enemies
Thoughts of others come between us
Trigger fits of jealousy
If you're a butterfly, I'm suicide by insecticide
If I am kerosene, then you're a spark just begging to ignite
You'll wish you never met me
Butterfly, butterfly, float on by me
Never meant to cut so deep
Just enough to bleed
Feel the sting as you get closer
Closer and closer to me
Don't let me hold something so delicate
I'll shatter it with a word
Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer
Damn this is gonna hurt.
You can paint me pretty colours
And dress me how you like
I'm just an ugly moth in love
In a butterfly disguise
I've been thinking about leaving since the day that we met
If I don't get close when it's all over I'll just forget
Cause I have seen the end
So many times I've played it in my mind
And I am scared to death
I never wanna see your dark side
If you're a butterfly, I'm suicide by insecticide
If I am kerosene, then you're a spark just begging to ignite
You'll wish you never met me
Butterfly, butterfly, float on by me
Never meant to cut so deep
Just enough to bleed
Feel the sting as you get closer
Closer and closer to me
Don't let me hold something do delicate
I'll shatter it with a word
Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer
Damn this is gonna hurt
Never meant to cut so deep
Just enough to bleed
Don't say a thing as we get closer and closer
Damn this is gonna hurt
