Lyrics
Yesterday I went outside
Yesterday, I went outside with my Mama's mason jar
Caught a lovely butterfly
When I woke up today, looked in on my fairy pet
She had withered all away, no more sighing in her breast
I'm sorry for what I did
I did what my body told me to
I didn't mean to do you harm
Every time I pin down what I think I want it slips away
The ghost slips away
Smell you on my hand for days
I can't wash away your scent
If I'm a dog, then you're a bitch
I guess you're as real as me; maybe I can live with that
Maybe I need a fantasy life of chasin' butterfly
I'm sorry for what I did
I did what my body told me to
I didn't mean to do you harm
Every time I pin down what I think I want it slips away
The ghost slips away
I told you I would return, when the robin makes his nest
But I ain't never comin' back
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
I'm sorry
