"Butterfly" lyrics - THE WOMBATS
It's wonderful to see you
But why the wandering eye?
My outfit's not that suspect and you weren't on the tear last night
Friends across the Atlantic say something has changed
Friends say you lost your guilt, empathy and your shame
It's wonderful to see you
But why the selective ear?
The conversation's awful 'cause we've only talked about your career
Friends across the Atlantic say you lost your mind
Friends say you sleep with mirrors at night
[Chorus:]
Don't you know that it's not okay to be a narcissist
It's not okay to let me down like this
My butterfly became a sprain living in my wrist
It's not okay to be a narcissist
It's wonderful to see you
You and your universe
Tell me how hard is its centre now you know that I don't care?
Friends across the Atlantic say something has changed
Friends say you lost your guilt, empathy and your shame
[Chorus:]
Don't you know that it's not okay to be a narcissist
It's not okay to let me down like this
My butterfly became a sprain living in my wrist
It's not okay to be a narcissist
[Bridge:]
My butterfly became a sprain living in my wrist
And I cannot lie, I'd sleep with mirrors if I had your lips
But it's not okay
To let me down like this
[Outro:]
Don't let me down like this [3x]
