about

Lyrics and Music J Morris. Guitar/Programming/Vocals J Morris, Keys/Additional Vocals W Wells

lyrics

your nectar stings my tongue
its heat is dripping all over my blistered lips
your scent has subtle shades of death
and dulcimers that sing like butterflies

the caterpillar spins its own extinction
shed that skin like virgin's clothes
spread those wings down where they grow
kill that rose before it grows too far
two more days until I go too far

the silk cocoon oppresses you
so you pierce it with your claws
you hear the other insects
rejoicing one and all
they circle in a trance a shining light
and chant over and over
the sun is heaven and in this light
we go to find our master

fly, fly, fly
fly, fly, little butterfly

the fire that burns the brightest
will turn your bones to sand
the longer I am next to you
the less I feel your hands against my skin
thin, like fingers on my spine
you shine for me like sun through ice
I spread for you my wings of white
and pink and gold and black as night
you cannot look away

fly, fly, fly
fly, fly, little butterfly

all is open in this light
all is empty in this light
everything is turning black
crystal wings return to ash

fly, fly, fly
fly, fly, little butterfly
