Lyrics
Know we're scared of us, what this might become
Expressing fear or hesitation about the potential outcome of the relationship.
Ain't no goin' back no more, no more
Emphasizing the irreversibility of the situation; there's no turning back.
We're in the same bed, cannot lay awake
Being in close physical proximity but emotionally distant during the night.
Let's fill up this space with us
Suggesting a desire to fill the emotional void between them with their presence.
Butterfly, yeah, yeah
Using "Butterfly" as a metaphor for transformation or change.
You make me feel brand new
Feeling a sense of renewal and freshness because of the partner's influence.
Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
Experiencing a powerful and exciting feeling, no longer actively searching for something else.
No longer lookin' for somethin'
-Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
-No longer lookin' for somethin'
-Oh, oh, oh
Repeating the expression of heightened emotions, possibly joy or anticipation.
So you seem to think you're invisible
Feeling unnoticed or disregarded by the partner.
You're so far from silhouette
Describing a significant emotional distance; the partner is not clearly seen or understood.
You tell on yourself between every word
Revealing personal details unintentionally while communicating.
And leave all this room for me
Creating space for the speaker to understand and fill the emotional gaps.
Butterfly, yeah
Reiterating the metaphor of a butterfly, possibly representing fragility or beauty.
I miss feelin' for you
Expressing a longing for the emotional connection that was previously felt.
Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
Reiterating the intense rush of emotions and the cessation of the search for something more.
No longer lookin' for somethin'
-Oh, I feel it comin', got a rush like I'm runnin' late
-No longer lookin' for somethin'
-You speak in dictionaries while fearing less than all will understand
Describing the partner's communication style as complex or difficult to understand.
Virgo moon, I'm so used to your dance
Referring to the partner's astrological sign, suggesting familiarity with their behavior.
Tongue too swole to comprehend
Acknowledging difficulty in understanding the partner's words due to emotional swelling.
I see you duck and dodge at every bend
Observing evasive behavior or avoidance in the partner's actions.
Afraid to play your card, be forced to show your hand
Expressing the hope that the partner will overcome fear and reveal their true self.
I hope you take from this that it'll make you no less of a man
Encouraging the partner not to feel diminished by vulnerability; it doesn't make them less of a man.
To break your walls and simply grab my hand
Encouraging the partner to break down emotional walls and connect intimately.
Love shouldn't be contraband
Affirming that love should not be restricted or forbidden.
It shouldn't trample on your confidence
Asserting that love should uplift confidence, not undermine it.
Shouldn't be seen as less than compliments
Stating that love should be viewed as complimentary, not as something inferior.
