Have you met my savior
I wear his old tee
With the butterfly emblem
That goes down to my knees
He gave me a stone once
It lives on a chain
I haven't held that necklace
Since the day he went away
And no one believes me,
No one believes me
He hosts a party on every full moon
Gives a toast to a long life
With every libation consumed
His kingdom is castaway
Though his presence remains
The lineage is breaking down
And pulsing in my veins
And no one believes me,
No one believes me
Once in a while, I stroll through the circle gate he left for me
He left for me
Once in a while, I barter for another glimpse of his estate
Oh what he made
With this libation let us live a long life (4x)
Have you met my savior
I wear his old tee
With the butterfly emblem
That goes down to my knees
