BBFUW (2010)

“Butterfly Attack”

 

Tough week again
I got drunk with a friend
Said some things I shouldn't have said
Just between you and me
But the words flew out of the cage in my mouth
Now the words are spinning free.
It's easy to hear what you fear
With a poverty of reason
Viral in need like jealousy
As easy as your breathing

Not first not last
Echo on from the past
Stock will rise and stock will fall
It's a matter of degree
Bears will maul, worms will crawl
Empires must finally fall
It's easy to hear what you fear
With a poverty of reason
Viral in need like jealousy
As easy as your breathing

Watch on your back for the butterfly attack
Watch what you say and where the words will play
Watch what you hear for it may be that you will only hear
What you fear.

Some false some true
Some say about you
Desdemona lied, Mark Twain finally died
Armstrong walked on the moon, there are zombies in the room
It's easy to hear what you fear
With a poverty of reason
Viral in need like jealousy
As easy as your breathing
