Butterfly

I've grown tired of this emptiness

So deeper and deeper I dig into the dark

Searching for tools to patch me up

But the more I find the more I'm torn apart

Constrain it, let the subjects meld

Like a mad disease the newborns divide

All the walls have come crashing down

So ball 'em up and shove 'em back inside

Crack the shell and let the truth emerge

Strain the brain, make it comprehend

Breathe new life into breathless lungs

And spread the word- it's time to rise again

Feel it, can you feel it grow?

Now feel it, does it multiply?

Feel it, change is coming soon

Butterfly, you wanna fly?

Open your arms and let me in

I wanna spread new wings,

I wanna shed this skin

Resurrect and reunite the kin

Wanna spread new wings,

I wanna spread new wings

Butterfly- open your mind, open your eyes

Prepare your senses as the sound excels

The next generation of angst unveiled

And spreads like cancer through these jaded cells

Infect me, let me crash and bleed

I can feel the sickness flowing through my veins

Down my system and attack the seed

Now you can have my pleasure if you'll take my pain

Lifeless eyes, can you see through the plastic?

Life fucking myself when my hands are cold

Dedication's never been the problem

But you say the words and I'm hard as stone

Now I see the clock reverse, don't you know-

The pain gets worst the further back you go

Your own regrets gonna shallow you whole

Now brace yourself, come on, brace yourself

[chorus]

Why don't you open you're arms?

Why don't you let me in?

Give up you're past

And lets start this thing

Jesus Christ, rip yourself form the cross

My patience with you has been my life's greatest loss

I'm tired of praying when nobody cares

Can you hear me now? are you even there?

I can see the surface, I can see the light

And I can see it shining through your eyes tonight

Now I can see the silhouette of seraphim

Now I can see myself spreading my own wings

Now tear off my garments and bury my face

Whatever it takes to get out of this place

Whatever it takes to hide what's inside

Hell, I'd sell my own soul for a piece of the pride

Now open your arms and let me in

Tear away my scars, wash away my sins

Spread them like wings, spread them like wings and fly

My little butterfly I'd like to see you try

Now open your arms and let me in

Come and take my hand

And let's start this thing
