Psalm - Butterfly Suicide lyrics

rate me

Please, don't take my innocence away<br />

Peel my heart from it's youth<br />

Expose it to love, expose it to hate, the worse enemies of happiness.<br />

Expose it to hope, expose it to fear, the worse enemies of forgiveness.<br />

Don't show your frightening wounds<br />

Closure of harmlessness<br />

Poor fool, you can't turn back time.<br />

Sad wings of destiny<br />

The butterfly is dying inside<br />

He's cripple, he's old, he can't fly no more<br />

The crows are growing inside<br />

They're black, they're vicious, they're rotten to the core<br />

Brutal transition<br />

Open his eyes, youth is now obsolete<br />

Helpless, youthfulness<br />

He'll soon be life's pitiful apprentice<br />

I don't want to become like them, you hear me?<br />

I can't be like them, I'm a better man! <br />

I'm so scared of the man I'll destroy, I'll become<br />

So scared of pain I will cause to others<br />

You want me to forget my past<br />

You're telling me<br />

How to grow up<br />

How to fit right in<br />

This forsaken world<br />

How to crush me<br />

Annihilate me<br />

Butterfly suicide<br />

Butterfly suicide<br />

I can't believe you<br />

- You can't avoid me<br />

I just despise you<br />

- You are here with me<br />

I'm not a scapegoat<br />

- Don't be your saviour<br />

I cannot trust you<br />

- But I will rule you too<br />

Paying the highest<br />

Toll of what man can<br />

Pay in such a short<br />

Notice of time, why?<br />

Can't you see why<br />

My desperate cries<br />

Can't be held down?<br />

It is eating me alive<br />

Why can't the butterfly just die inside?
