[Verse 1]
It's a good year for a murder
She's praying to Jesus, she's pulling the trigger
There's no tears 'cause he's not here
She washes her hands, and she fixes the dinner
But soon, they'll be coming to rush her away
No one's so sure if her crime had a reason
And 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

[Chorus]
"It's me and the moon," she says
And I got no trouble with that
And I am a butterfly, but you won't let me die
"It's me and the moon," she says

[Verse 2]
And it's over, but it just started
The blood stained the carpet, her heart like a crystal
She's 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 role, and you give up your soul 'til you break down
[Chorus]
"It's me and the moon," she says
And I got no trouble with that
And I am a butterfly, but you won't let me die
"It's me and the moon," she says

[Bridge]
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

[Chorus]
"It's me and the moon," she says
And I got no trouble with that
And I am a butterfly, but you won't let me die
I am a butterfly, but you wouldn't let me die
I am a butterfly
I am a butterfly
I am a butterfly
