I'm scared of life and I'm scared of dying
A bird of prey with a fear of flying
I wanna tell the truth but I end up lying
I don't know why I do

I don't mind the pain but I hate the fight
And the more I fight the less I find
When you paint me with this different light
A light I never knew

And I've been so scared of this feeling
I just needed you to believe in
And I'll figure it out, won't let you down
'Cause I don't want you feeling alone

You gave me somebody
Yeah you gave me sunlight
Somebody to hold
Somebody to know

This evanescent way of life
Has a way of being so unkind
And even though we're running wild
We're never left behind

I just wanna feel the open sky
I just wanna see the world from high
What's it like to be a butterfly
You're a butterfly, oh love of mine

You gave me somebody
Yeah, you gave me sunlight
Somebody to hold
Somebody to know

Yeah, you gave me sunlight
The light of my life
Somebody to hold
Somebody to know

You gave
You gave

'Cause I was so scared of the feeling
I just needed you to believe it
And I'll figure it out, won't let you down
'Cause I don't want you feeling alone

You gave me sunlight
The light of my life
Somebody to hold
Somebody to know
