Butterfly

She watches the darkness creep in, oh

Come by an half past day

She sits by the weeping willow

Sad that she can't relay

She dreams of someday getting out of this place

She said she's never felt at home

Even in her own face.

I know it won't be long

Until you turn to a butterfly

I know you're weak and you're hanging on

Go give it another try.

She dreams of parkways and those wings

That look like parachutes

She dreams of waterfalls

That sweep your feet from under you

She finds her comfort inside

Bedtime stories and fairytales

Anything with a happy ending

She says it can never fade.

I know it won't be long

Until you turn to a butterfly

I know you're weak but you're hanging on

Cause you're dreaming of a open sky

She don't wanna talk about it

Cause that's all that she's done

She don't wanna think about it

She's not the only one

She doesn't wanna be the one

She doesn't have to be

Doesn't have to be.

She wants to be the girl

Who swept of her feet in the end

She wants to live her life what's real

And not just for pretend

She dreams of laughter in the rain

She says it's her favorite sound

She dreams of plastic parents that

Would never let her down

I know it won't be long

Until you turn to a butterfly

I know you're weak and you're hanging on

Cause you're dreaming of a open sky

And go and give it just another try

I know it won't be long

Until you turn to a butterfly

I know you're weak but you're hanging on

Cause you're dreaming of a open sky.
