Money

Butterflies eat away at my lungs
Before my day has even begun
I had everything riding on you
I knew I was stupid and thought you were too

Happiness is like money to my touch
Easy to fake and worth so much
So cough up some pittance and make me smile
I cough until I bleed and pass out for a while

Everything has a purpose, even if it is to ruin me

Some think I'm paranoid, some think I'm blind
I really don't care, I abandoned my mind
It failed me first, and in this I swear
One day I'll be dead, with my mind everywhere

Buried my wings, I hated to fly
Like I could ever, fall to the sky
I am just someone, a nothing like you
So end the pretence, before I end you
