I've always wondered why people rode the biggest rollercoasters
Why the feeling brought up some type of excitement they didn't receive on a regular day?
Like when did feeling sick become equivalent to thrill or nausea been X pill?
I've always wondered why people rode those really big rollercoasters
And I remember, I remember when I did

It's the butterflies
And the fireflies
Fighting in my stomach
(The light between their wings)
I'm scared to fly
I might come down
I think I'm ready now
(Line)

It's the twist and the curve
It's the up and the swerve
It's smiling so wide, I'm smiling
It's the feeling of my nerves on the front edge of the seat
Eyes are open
Tears are coming from the thrill of sight moving as fast as light
Laughing for no reason
Screaming for all the things I should not have said in that last fight
Those rollercoasters, those rollercoasters
Those rollercoasters are like meeting God with a kite in your left hand
String are still twisted around your forefinger
Your right is busy gripping the safety rail
There is this moment when you feel like you're in an incredible ocean of your own butterflies
This is the moment when you get free and you let your arms fly
I know I'm flying right now

It's the butterflies
And the fireflies
Fighting in my stomach
(The light between their wings)
I'm scared to fly
I might come down
I think I'm ready now
(Ready now)
Getting back in line

Fly fly fly fly
Fly fly fly fly

Fly fly fly fly
Fly fly fly fly

I wanna fly so (fly)
I wanna fly so high (fly fly fly)
