lyrics

i was told if you feel like a burden to him then its time that you fly away
so i kissed a boy with a mouth like yours but it didn’t make me feel the same way
and all these dead moths and porch lights couldnt teach me a lesson and i hopelessly choose to stay
i was ur headache ur burden let me burn on the porchlight at the end of each summer day

i was ur headache ur burden let me burn on ur porchlight at the end of each day
nostalgia it travels but its probably just jet lag and illsleep it away

and these headaches are daily so i take proper dosage and patiently hope for the best
and im still thinking about the sounds you might make when you sleep that i havent heard yet
and i wish i could wake u each day to butterfly kisses i place on yr head
but im no.butterfly flitting around yr room, im a moth, for the porchlight not ur bed

i was ur headache ur burden let me burn on ur porchlight at the end of each day
im not a butterfly, im a moth
