Black Butterfly

Flashes of light, light, light

Inside the tower, but I am uninvited

I'm on earth and you're high up in the sky, sky, sky

Isolate yourself with your kind

From the world outside

Locked yourself inside your shell

Afraid of all the tales they tell

They laid their eggs inside your mind

While the world revolves you're paralyzed

I'm out of tears to cry

Bend the knee

I'm done seein' you fall in line

I'm out of strength to fight

If you earned your wings

Fly black butterfly

Fly fly, like you always dreamed

'Cause when we die, -ie, -ie

We'll be paying for our sins

Now they say: My oh my

But remember who has stood by your side

All this time

When you were crawling on your knees

Now you're the one abandoning me

I'm not the one who has changed

Not the one who needs to be saved

I'm out of tears to cry

Bend the knee

I'm done seein' you fall in line

I'm out of strength to fight

If you earned your wings

Fly black butterfly

So what have you become

Craving for the storm

'Cause you feel so numb

Feel so numb

And inside your shell you became someone else

You're someone else

I'm out of tears to cry

Bend the knee

I'm done seein' you fall in line

I'm out of strength to fight

If you earned your wings

Fly black butterfly

I'm out of tears to cry

Bend the knee

I'm done seein' you fall in line

I'm out of strength to fight

If you earned your wings

Fly black butterfly

You say: When death will kiss me goodbye

I'll be flying high up in the sky

Into eternity, I will rise

So save your tears, I'll be a butterfly

I'd rather live before I die

Than die to live in paradise

A sinner dying on his feet

Or living a life on your knees
