But Let Her Fly

Rage flaring that pipe Two doors and I’m knocking Hello friend zone Trying to get me to take a number We can’t talk about it Cause I’m trying to keep my cool head Wince when you turn your back But I keep groveling I know how to self sooth Punishment and I are old friends Don’t need you serving it I’m gonna brake all the glasses I can hear you laughing When you’re pretending Like I have no power on you But you’re sorely mistaken I catch you smiling The look that says you know I broke the mold And now you’re softening Stop playing with sluggers The butterfly is just waiting She can make you feel If you let her in Thick in the air I can’t even breath It’s just hanging As we sit ignoring it When the sky is lit with fireflies You’ll see her fly away You can’t pull only when I turn away It’s broken if you play that way
