Don't give me butterflies

(Verse 1)

Every detail laid out bare, honey, darling, dear

Southern charm, a sweet tone in the air, but nothing held sincere

I spelled it out, each promise made, to lift you, build you high

So you could stand, unafraid, beneath your own damn sky

Not to be your shadow, no, that wasn't in the plan

Just the friend who helps you grow, a ride-or-die woman.

(Pre-Chorus)

Somewhere the wires crossed and frayed, the signal went astray

Now these words, a serenade, to push the ghosts away.

To silence the echo in my head, the weight upon my chest

Let the fantasy be dead, finally laid to rest.

(Chorus)

You don't give me butterflies, no flutter in my soul

Your touch, it leaves me cold inside, doesn't make me lose control

Your voice, it doesn't melt me down, doesn't bring me to my knees

You're simply not the battleground built for someone like me.

(Verse 2)

You could tame a smaller flame, a flicker in the night

But my wildfire plays a different game, burns with a darker light

Not a challenge, not a slight, just truth in how we're made

My wildness runs both deep and bright, a shadow unafraid

And I won't plant those thorny seeds, the darkness I embrace

Don't want to twist your gentle deeds, or haunt your peaceful space.

(Chorus)

You don't give me butterflies, no flutter in my soul

And when you touch, the feeling dies, doesn't make me lose control

Your voice, it doesn't melt me down, doesn't bring me to my knees

You're simply not the battleground built for someone like me.

Friendship's all I ever craved, anything more feels wrong, you see.

(Bridge)

A good guy, yeah, I know it's true, I've told you time and time again

But "good" just doesn't see me through, I crave a partner in the sin.

(Chorus)

You don't give me butterflies, no flutter in my soul

Your touch, it leaves me cold inside, doesn't make me lose control

Your voice, it doesn't melt me down, doesn't bring me to my knees

You're simply not the battleground built for someone like me.

(Outro)

So ease your mind, let worries cease, no knots within me tied

I'm a wild child, finding peace where shadows softly ride

Dancing under moonlit skies, making love in pouring rain

If we collided, you'd realize, I'd leave you wrecked with pain.

So let the fears and thoughts just fade, trust me, this isn't fate, no way.

You couldn't handle my wild side, anyway.
