Butterfly in a Glass Jar Songtext

von Alaska Highway

You never gave me your strength, but I have always been stronger
You never gave me your love, but I had given you mine
You were just an illusion, my tormenting confusion, was I ever good enough for you?
Cause you were the butterfly in the glass jar that I could never let go
So I ripped your wings off. So you couldn't fly, fly away from me.
You never gave me your strength your love your anything.
Was I just an illusion, some tormenting confusion, was I ever good enough for you?
You were the person I could imagine spending the rest of my life with in your arms, in your arms.
Please don't leave me,
I don't want to live without you; I don't want to die within you.
