Butterfly
R.U.O.K. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I get butterflies every time i think about you
This is not the first time
And won't be the last
I think about us together
Forever
And i never
Want to let go
Just so you know
I've messed up so bad
Leave it in the past
I always think about you
And this won't be last
Time i need you in my life

I get butterflies every time i think about you
This is not the first time
And won't be the last
I think about us together
Forever
And i never
Want to let you go
The pain sinks in
And i'm left hallow
No matter who hurts you
I'll take the blame
Love is like a sickness and i can't contain
The pain
That's all up in my veins

I get butterflies every time i think about you
This is not the first time and won't be the last
I know i fucked up in the past
But our love it'll last
Forever
Forever
I'm saying forever
I hope you feel the same
But it's so damn hard
For me to stay
When you give me all your pain

I get butterflies every time i think about you
I get butterflies every time you look my way
I feel them in my stomach
But I kinda hope they stay.

I get butterflies every time i think about you
This is not the first time
And won't be the last
I think about us together
Forever
And i never
Want to let go
Just so you know
I've messed up so bad
Leave it in the past
I always think about you
And this won't be last
Time i need you in my life

I get butterflies every time i think about you
This is not the first time
And won't be the last
I think about us together
Forever
And i never
Want to let you go
The pain sinks in
And i'm left hallow
No matter who hurts you
I'll take the blame
Love is like a sickness and i can't contain
The pain
That's all up in my veins

I get butterflies every time i think about you
This is not the first time and won't be the last
I know i fucked up in the past
But our love it'll last
I hope you feel the same
But it's so damn hard
For me to stay
When you give me all your pain

I get butterflies every time i think about you
I get butterflies every time you look my way




I feel them in my stomach
But I kinda hope they stay.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to R.U.O.K.'s song "Butterfly" speak to the power of imagination and escapism in the face of difficult life circumstances. The singer describes locking the door and "locking" their head, indicating a desire to shut out the world and retreat into their own thoughts. In this internal space, they dream of butterflies - a symbol of beauty, freedom, and grace. The singer imagines a world filled with these creatures and other pretty things, using their imagination to fill the "void" of their existence.


However, the song also touches on the source of the singer's need to escape - their parents' troubled relationship. The singer's father tells them that he loves them, but also confesses that he and the singer's mother "don't get along." The singer is skeptical of this explanation, recognizing that there must be more to the story. They long for comfort and reassurance, seeking solace in their stuffed animals and other favorite things. Despite the chaos and uncertainty of their external world, the singer finds comfort in the consistency of their own imagination and the comfort of their loyal toys.


Overall, "Butterfly" is a poignant and relatable tribute to the power of imagination and the ways in which we cope with difficult situations. It reminds us that sometimes, the things that bring us the most comfort and joy are the ones we create for ourselves.

And someone has to get that phone
There are other responsibilities and realities that need attention.


Alright
Despite all of these struggles, I'll be okay.
