Social Butterfly
Embracing the Night: Unveiling the Journey of a Social Butterfly
Lyrics
When I was younger
Reflecting on the past when the speaker was younger.
I thought I would die
Expressing a feeling of extreme vulnerability or intensity in youth.
Now I'm a little bit older
Acknowledging the passage of time and aging.
I still go out at night
Despite growing older, the speaker still engages in nighttime activities.
Need someone to talk to
Seeking companionship and the need for meaningful conversation.
Hope I say something right
Expressing anxiety about saying the right things in social situations.
I go home alone
Returning home alone after social interactions.
A social butterfly
Describing oneself humorously as a social butterfly, despite going home alone.
I'm gonna come outta my coma
Committing to emerge from a metaphorical coma or a period of stagnation.
Gonna try to make things right
Expressing the intention to make amends or improve one's life.
Stay out all night, tryin' to get a bite
Engaging in nocturnal activities, possibly seeking excitement or connection.
Like a social butterfly
Reiterating the self-description as a social butterfly.
Now I'm just like a moth
Comparing oneself to a moth, suggesting attraction to risky or dangerous situations.
Flyin' into the fire
Metaphorically flying into challenging or perilous circumstances.
And I fly by night
Emphasizing a tendency to be active during the night.
Lookin' for the nearest light
Searching for something meaningful or fulfilling.
I saw you at the party
Recalling a conflict at a social gathering.
And we got in a fight
Describing a fight with someone at the party.
And now I miss you like
Expressing a sense of longing or missing someone.
Yellow to the color blind
Using color blindness metaphor to convey intense missing or yearning.
And I'm comin' outta my coma
Reiterating the commitment to break free from a stagnant state.
I'm gonna come out tonight
Planning to be active and social during the night.
Lookin' for a little reaction
Seeking a reaction or response from others.
I'm like a social butterfly
Reaffirming the self-description as a social butterfly.
If I could do
Expressing a desire to do something specific with someone.
What I wanna do with you
Desiring a return to a more protected or comfortable state.
I'd crawl right back
Symbolizing a retreat or withdrawal into oneself.
Into my cocoon
You know I'm gonna come outta my coma
Intending to set the night on fire, possibly metaphorical for an exciting or transformative experience.
I'm gonna set the night on fire
Anticipating a meeting or interaction during the night.
I'll see you there
Encouraging someone to join in the excitement, advising against being uncool.
Don't be square
Describing someone as a social butterfly, similar to the speaker.
You're a social butterfly
Like a social butterfly
Repeating the self-description and emphasizing social and active tendencies.
A social butterfly
Affirming again the social butterfly persona.
