Through My Sunroof

Was in the car when I got the bad news
Got in a foul mood, the attitude sitting at the drive-through
Thinking of your last few minutes, sniffling, this is frightful
Would have sent for a Bible, read you a parable, prayed to your God too
If it let you survive through this collision and gave you an 'act 2'
But alas, you passed through and I'm lucky enough to have had you

(A butterfly flew through my sunroof)

Was in a bad shape from a break-up
One of those sleep, never wake up
Deep in that grey cloud, grief is my safe-house
And I freaked every female I take out
The enemies that me, I made up
The one who sings the Saint Love
The heart of armor uncovered, it's just a paper cup
Half-empty but you sent me a life that still reflects me

(A butterfly flew through my sunroof)

Was in a foreign world where the boys and girls spoke in verb
Holding him, holding her, slowly strolling and stroking hair
While I kick stones and dirt
Kickback on the poems I heard
So alone, far from home and it's too fucking cold to flirt
Perturbed I wrote to her sending over oceans, there

(A butterfly flew through my sunroof)

Was in the office when the call came
No name, little miss long legs
Okay I've been thinking of it all day
To the wife: 'I'm gonna see the ball game'
Don't wanna be the wrong man, but you should see this woman
She's different, hip and awkward
Shit, I miss the 'old her'
A decade later, I don't think I know her

(A butterfly flew through my sunroof)

Was in a turtle shell, a Lauryn Hill with caged bird as hell
God is fair but the word spread
The lies are hurt, the fires are worth
[inaudible 1]
[inaudible 2]
Liar you, Tiger Woods, master crook, pervert
A stranger you are, an unfamiliar person

(A butterfly flew through my sunroof)

Was in a dark place, heart palpitations
Hard to face, it's just a shade of something special
Drugged on anti-depressants
Defenseless, stranded, fenced-in
His friends are like the henchmen
I grab the stress pill, swallow a countless measure
I crumble but I don't really want to

(A butterfly flew through my sunroof)

A butterfly flew through my sunroof
A butterfly flew through my sunroof
A butterfly flew through my sunroof...
