Mariposa by obedlina98

[Verse 1]  
The air is heavy with the scent of coming rain  
I’m overthinking every pulsing in my vein  
The silence used to be the way I hid my pain  
Ooh-la-la-la, yeah  
When I say “I’m all in,” you just turn away  
Leaving all the words I rehearsed for you to say  
Now there’s nothing left to whisper, nothing left to pray  
Yeah, huh

[Pre-Chorus]  
Too light, too high, too gone to find  
You're out of time, I'm out of my mind  
Yeah, you call me Mariposa

[Chorus]  
I love it when you call me Mariposa  
Tracing the static 'til the room starts getting colder  
Pull me a little closer, ooh-la-la-la  
Yeah, it's true, ooh-la-la-la  
I try to play it cool, keep my composure  
But the gravity of you won't let me soar over

[Verse 2]  
Neon lighting, yeah, you're striking like a match  
I'm the kind of fever that you never meant to catch  
You say we're "fixed" but there's a lock without a latch, la-la-la  
It feels like ooh-la-la-la (Yeah)  
I'm addicted to the friction of the chase  
But I'm tired of the way you try to take up space  
I'm a wild thing you can't ever quite replace, la-la-la  
It feels like ooh-la-la-la, yeah

[Pre-Chorus]  
Too light, too high, too gone to find  
You're out of time, I'm out of my mind  
Yeah, you call me Mariposa

[Bridge]  
I was grounded, now I'm weightless (Weightless)  
Left the feelings that were nameless (Nameless)  
Call my name, but I'm already flying (Already flying)  
Already flying (Already flying)  
For good  
Yeah, I'm gone for good

[Outro]  
For good (Yeah, he loves the way I fly)  
For good  
Ooh, I should be running  
Ooh, but I'm already in the sky  
Ooh-la-la-la  
You're just a view from high  
Mariposa... goodbye.
