And all that’s left are black butterflies Fluttering all about, surrounding me All that’s left is deadness in my eyes Dust to dust, everything falls apart It has been so long, I can’t even cry Lost spinning in a full room all alone I contemplate if I should still fight As black butterflies fly in my mind
The darkness takes over and lasts I keep having to mend the pieces back As falling apart seems to be my knack Ashes to ashes, everything falls apart It seems like there are no new starts Black butterflies have taken their flight I ask to the dear heavens above, “why” I’m seeing the world with black butterflies
Because all that’s left are black butterflies Those black butterflies fly in my mind The black butterflies have taken their flight I’m seeing the world with black butterflies
