Peach you are so sweet to me
I always knew I'd see the day
When all the things you said to me
Would come up just when I need them
I saw it in your eyes, butterfly
Oh I saw it in your eyes butterfly
And when I finally see you again
I will greet you like a friend
Cause I know you're out there somewhere
Yes, this genetic code
Oh it's lasted us so long
I can feel the sameness
In your eyes.
Oh I see it in your eyes butterfly
Yeah I see it in your eyes butterfly
Sing to me sweetly
Come away with all
The all is in you
Words are like asylum
They can let me go
So let me go
Sing to me madly
Of the one who said gladly
I wont let you
Go
So scream, Butterfly Butterfly
So scream, Butterfly Butterfly
So scream

Butterfly down south
This way I got started
This side the water says oh I have to warn them
This side the water says oh I have to join them
And I wonder
By the core what your love'd be like
When I wander I might fall
Diving under
We're the ones who keep demons away
And now I cannot afford to fall
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Among the rocks a lighthouse is the only truth
This side the water says oh I better leave them
And I wonder
By the core what your love'd be like
When I wander I might fall
Diving under
We're the ones who keep demons away
and now I cannot afford to fall
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out
Dream of the Underworld
I will dig you out

Same with me too
They come to “save” you
Underneath they’re bored
To “save” you
Underneath their horde
[Dear one be the one to find]
Sometimes I find I don’t wanna come if she’s gunna go on
[Don’t wanna spar just to fly]
These dumb — by now — I don’t wanna sing if she’s gunna go in
[Is it fact or what is true to you?]
Too far I cry I can’t be calm
[You make me masses, make “my side”]
To then dig in
And I feel some way
You sell out for a Like —
Yeah you feel so fake
And it’s not my style
Yeah I feel some uh
OuttaMahWayDoh
OuttaMahWayDoh
OuttaMahWayDoh
— you can see me dancing on my own
OuttaMahWayDoh
Dear one be the one to find —
Don’t wanna spar just to fly
Doesn’t matter what is true to you
Ah heyo
I could see you
Heyo
There’s no “side”
OuttaMahWayDoh
OuttaMahWayDoh
OuttaMahWayDoh
— you can see me dancing on my own

What do you need?
I been thinkin’ you feel me recently
Got yer song on my repeat
The gas, the heat,

Snap a pic so I could see

If you wanna ride with me
Got somethin’ goin’ on

I was gunna roll up
What do you need?
I been thinkin’ you feel me recently
Ya ya ya ya ya
Ya ya ya ya ya
Ah ah

When you hold me underwater
Yeah you are my breath mi amor
Up and down and in and out in foam
Tide upon my shore
Oh let’s assume that all of your battleships
Sank to the nauticore
Oh let’s assume that every abandoned ship
Came back up for more
I’m on TV now
I’m buying out my name
You can see me now
I’m leaking out my frame
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
Yeah you do me again
Oh let’s assume that all your abandoned ships sank to my nauticore.
I’m a sea thing now
I’m trying out my name
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
Yeah you do me again
Mix the island
Shake my drink
Caught my eye
And made me think
I could live on nothing but
You you you you and
The moon
And between two poles
Whales search for gold
Keep on loving you
Til I-I-I
I abandon time
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
High tide
Got me right
Hold on
Hold me tight
The moon
And you
You do me again
And you do me again
