The worst things come without waring
But only people can lie
The butterfly effected my life
But it's too cold for butterflies to fly
…
I guess she's been this way since eighteen
But I have only seen it lately
Can't clean up this mess she's making
Memories stained with blood
…
And I can only hope you can forget
The ones with guns trying to get their fill
'Cause even though I try real hard
I know I never will
The words I wish I said I wish had made you better
I tried not to let you down
They can only best you only if let them
And catch you if they can
…
The butterfly's still effective
That's when you started to lie
While my savior's still defective
It's not too cruel for butterflies to die
…
I guess she's been this way since eighteen
But I have only seen it lately
Can't clean up this mess she's making
Memories stained with lust
…
And I can only hope you can forget
The ones with guns trying to get their fill
'Cause even though I try real hard
I know I never will
The words I wish I said I wish had made you better
I tried not to let you down
They can only best you only if let them
And catch you if they can
…
You can go and you can stay
And we can can all pretend nothing has changed
Say what you want and go where you wish
I just thought you were stronger than this
…
I guess she's been this way since eighteen
But I have only seen it lately
Can't clean up this mess she's making
Memories stained with love
…
And I can only hope you can forget
The ones with guns trying to get their fill
'Cause even though I try real hard
I know I never will
The words I wish I said I wish had made you better
I tried not to let you down
They can only best you only if let them
And catch you if they can

A/N- one small decision in a cross road to move on, or to dwell on the past, can change everything forever. The past is the past and it doesn't have to last.
