"Dead Butterflies" lyrics

You held my hand, but not in public
I thought that that was love, it wasn't
Turns out I was just a dirty, little secret
And I was so damn broken
I tried so hard to keep it
And after what happened, happened
I refused to believe it

Friends with benefits are fine
But even friends can cross a line
And let's be honest
Friends don't do what you did to me that night
What you did to me that night

When I was left there, all alone
You didn't care when I said "No"
When you lied to all our friends
And said that it was consensual
I should have known that I'd be mourning
Mourning the loss of me
And be stuck with these memories
These memories and dead butterflies

I wondered if you really liked me
Or if you just liked my body
Turns out I had known all along
And I was so damn broken
I tried so hard to keep you
And despite the way you used me
I did everything to please you

Friends with benefits are fine
But even friends can cross a line
And let's be honest
Friends don't do what you did to me that night
What you did to me that night

When I was left there, all alone
You didn't care when I said "No"
When you lied to all our friends
And said that it was consensual
I should have known that I'd be mourning
Mourning the loss of me
And be stuck with these memories
These memories and dead butterflies

You gave me dead butterflies
Dead butterflies
Butterflies never lie
Especially when they die
