Prison ships and butterflies 6/4/15 [Even if it is the 5th]
Watch the crosswalk cross on by. My oh my. Let it all cave in. Get your tickets for the show. It only strikes midnight once your far away from home. So nearly alone. Forget the dial tone, say your message loud and clear to the friend on the other end who is no longer there. Their voice is nice to hear. Forget what they said in school, you're doing what makes you feel cool. Deep down inside. Deep inside; way down. The butterfly flaps its wings, pretty colors shimmering. Prisoners all pray for their view to be a little more open. Inviting not the sorrow, but all the times before they took a step to the devil's den. My oh my, my my. Such a lonely night. Why oh why, we sleep with the light, in the clothes I wore from the night before. Fly on by, with the breeze. Take your step with filth and sleaze. Prison ships and Butterflies. Condemned and scared, locked away. Seismic colors in disarray. My, oh why. Watch them fly. Into the dark and into the light.
