Butterflies Instead

I lock the door and lock my head And dream of butterflies instead The beauty of their colored wings The trees, the grass, and prettier things Imagination fills the void of my existence Daddy says "I love you girl, it's not your fault Your mom and me don't get along." I know he's lying, I know there's No such thing as inexplicable I hear, forget this world in bed And suddenly the sun comes up That's when my pets all come alive They cheer me up and tell me Everything's alright Stuffed animals are always right My favorite song, my favorite show I wonder if they even know If if they care, or if they even notice I am standing there I want my pets to come alive And cheer me up and tell me Everything's alright Stuffed animals are always right Everything's alright Stuffed animals are always right Alright My eyes all red, the baby's wet And someone has to get that phone I want my pets to come alive And cheer me up and tell me Alright I lock the door and lock my head And dream of butterflies instead --- Butterflies Instead - K's Choice
