Wish I could be who I wanna be
I don’t know who I wanna be yet
Control how they perceive me
I don’t know who I wanna be yet

See what I wanna see
Search for another meaning
Control how people treat me
Make it my reality yeah, yeah yeah, yeah

But nothing these days is quite that simple
Like when I was young and didn’t think
That I'm just passing time
Can I
Stay here catching butterflies?
Cause everything around me is constantly changing
And I am too I'm so afraid that I’ll just live and die
Can I
Stay here catching butterflies?

I can feel my body shaking
Mind is ever changing
Feel good til I'm aggravated
Never stay where I feel amazing

Wanna tear all the fuckin pages
Settle into having patience
Rip the tape off from my cheeks and
Make my own reality yeah, yeah yeah, yeah

In the back of my mind
I picture me as a child
No outside infiltration
I was outside chasing

Birds and dreams so
Outside of my reach
No internal frustration
I was outside chasing butterflies

Nothing these days is quite that simple
Like when I was young and didn’t think
That I'm just passing time
Can I
Stay here catching butterflies?
Cause everything around me is constantly changing
And I am too I'm so afraid that I’ll just live and die
Can I
Stay here catching butterflies?

Don’t stop don’t stop
Chasing
Don’t stop don’t stop!

Don’t stop don’t stop
Chasing
Don’t stop don’t stop
Chasing butterflies
