Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line The pressure up the side Through space and throughout time As earthlings compromise Can't choose, so now you're on the D-side, goodbye In the bucket Lies a boulder A weight that's bearing A grizzly horror And when you look back Over your shoulder Nothing to smolder It's all gone Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line Some days we grow Some days we die The future's told A glassy eye When we're not sposed To hear it why Did we open Our mouths tonight So flip me up and pour me out This garden holds a water spout I'll be full no matter how Many cracks to me are dealt When halves are half and past is past Pressure takes diamonds through Hell to get back Cursed be the name of the pieces of trash Til the keepers come digging, see hope in the wrath I can't decide which side am I If blood gives sight, why am I blind Been good, I swear, for half my life That's relative, cause family bites In the water Where it's colder A shiver spreads from A broken shoulder Proportions out of Their blowing order Cause nothing's okay When you tell yourself that Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line Would you walk across the water If they said it'd make you smarter Drown in depth to feed your daughter And make your father proud Why not stand aside the gunner Press the trigger cause you wanna Drink the power in the summer Enjoy the heat you're shedding down Would you walk across the water If they said it'd get you farther Spread your wings with ease of butter Not quick enough, then you will drown So I ran, then I sprinted From my superstition The people were watching And nobody walked in I laid in a coffin With eyelids of blockage 'Til realization That I had to stop him That was me Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line Butterflies Run the line Looking back Eyes looking for them Butterflies run the line Oh Oh ooh ah ay ya ah Oh ooh ah ay ya Oh ooh ah ay ya Hey aye ay Oh ooh ah ay yah Oh ooh ah ay yah Oh ooh oh Oh ooh oh Oh ooh ah ay So my name's Carter Costello I was born in a bathtub on Mulberry Street in Rochester, New York And before I turned two, my parents came to Seattle There were many other places they could've gone, uh And I was talking to them earlier tonight about that Some town in Arizona Umm Aberdeen, Washington And probably a few other places And somehow, they decided Seattle And I'm very grateful for that But also, I wonder, of course What would've happened You know, what it would be like if we had gone somewhere else Umm, and would I be similar to the person I am now Umm, like was my growth dependent on who my parents were, or um, or not I, um, made this project, in part You know, on Thomas Hodek's beats And, um I'm hoping this is gonna be the last project, maybe with some exceptions, that I release with, uh, that being the case I want to make music that is more fully me And I've found that with this next project that I've been working on Um, I don't know the name of it yet, but it has a really killer song on it, called Everything Is Turning Green And that one's about a state in life where you're looking back on everything that you've prioritized And you realize that you've been doing it all wrong Um, like prioritizing money over family is kinda the surface level/basic idea of it I'm excited for that And, um, and what else I've been doing recently Musically, and just within myself So, I, uh, spur of the moment Before releasing this, thought that I would add a minute gap after this last track on the project, Butterflyez Um, which I do love But you know, this is actually written by Nicholas Ogum A dear childhood friend of mine And, um, and y-uh, it wasn't written by him, he, he came up with the hook I did the rest But shoutout to Nick for doing the hook on that Um, because I love it And it-there's so much meaning that can be found in those few words Um, that I'll kinda bounce back and forth between in my head Uh, like what 'butterflies running the line' looks like What does that mean And that's for you to figure out Whoever's listening to this Ohh, anyways I hope you all have an amazing evening I do, I really do Hope you have an amazing evening And, um, I hope you enjoyed the project And if you're still listening to this right now What the f*ck are you doing Go do something else Go say hi to your family Blood, or not You know Alright Peace out
