Once had a man, he took me high
Then he tried to break me like a butterfly
Pistol in his hand, loaded with his lies
Oh he tried to break me like a butterfly
I don't know how I've gotten out of this alive
But I'm damn sure never gonna give up without a fight
Silverlake boys, so pretty to your eyes
But if they don't have a job then they'll take you down and leave you dry
Millionaire men, everything they can buy "“
But some of them have a special glass for a butterfly
I don't know how I've gotten out of this alive
But I'm damn sure never gonna give up without a fight
Oh, I've got that feeling again
Going down the road, with my wings in the wind
And I feel that love is coming again
I feel that I could take a chance
..and go down that road"¦
Once had a man, he took me high
And oh he knew the beauty of a butterfly
But in the end, it just wasn't the time
And somehow you've gotta keep your head up to the light
I don't know how I've gotten out of this alive
But I'm damn sure never gonna give up without a fight
Butterflies roam, down the road, butterflies roam
Looking for a rose, down the road.
