I drew a butterfly on my wrist,

In hope that this feeling would no longer persist.

But things got bad and I started to cry

So the butterfly on my wrist, it had to die.

Once again I tried to set myself free

But it seemed my thoughts had stolen the key.

So this butterfly lived a very short life

Killed with fear and a very sharp knife.
