boy least likely to - i box up all the butterflies lyrics

Loading...

i find it difficult to
relax in the summertime
with all the flowers in bloom
i creep across the countryside
with my net and my bait
and a pocketful of bailer twine

i break the promises i made
as i box up all the b-tterflies

i ruin
everything
as i sit in a field of gr-ss
in the spring
listening
to the beat of its little heart
and to its wings
struggling
for air under an upturned gl-ss
and i put a pin
through its wings

and i bottle it up,
i box it up,
and bury it in my heart

just as i know my friends
i also know my enemies
are the birds and the bees
and my own little insecurities

i creep around in the dark
and i tear up all the dandelions
and i break my own heart
as i box up all the b-tterflies

tirelessly,
following
its tiny b-tterfly tracks
across the field in the spring
with a plastic carrier bag

full of fish,
hooks, and string
i lay a little matchbox trap
and i put pin
through its wings

and i bottle it up,
i box it up
and bury it in my heart

i folded up its furry wings
and opened up its little heart
it might sound stupid
but something about it made me want to pull it apart

i ruin
everything
as i sit in a field of gr-ss
in the spring
listening
to the beat of its little heart
and to its wings
struggling
for air under an upturned gl-ss
and i put a pin through its wing

and i bottle it up,
i box it up,
and bury it in my heart.
