Butterfly Flutter high You'd better fly and paint the air Colorless worm Powerless you were Alone in the blur of the world out there Brought up by a careless mother Brought down by a faithless lover Back-stabbed by the closest friend But never strong enough to mend The abuse in their love Fed the unconditionality in yours The harshness in their souls Fueled the kindness in yours When all this world's horrors Swept away all your colors New ones were your creation A spectrum beyond imagination Now all you see around you is this world's boredom and pallor Many will underestimate you Won't appreciate you precious color 'Till you find that rare other you who knows the price of your glamour Has enough kindness to deserve you from all the pain he had suffered To invest himself all in you to paint the air together "If only this world had many of you we could have loved one another" Butterfly Flutter far Better fly high like the star you are Colorless worm Alone in the blur Not anymore But so much more. ~Epic Monkey

Butterfly Flutter high You'd better fly and paint the air Colorless worm Powerless you were Alone in the blur of the world out there Brought up by a careless mother Brought down by a faithless lover Back-stabbed by the closest friend But never strong enough to mend The abuse in their love Fed the unconditionality in yours The harshness in their souls Fueled the kindness in yours When all this world's horrors Swept away all your colors New ones were your creation A spectrum beyond imagination Now all you see around you is this world's boredom and pallor Many will underestimate you Won't appreciate you precious color 'Till you find that rare other you who knows the price of your glamour Has enough kindness to deserve you from all the pain he had suffered To invest himself all in you to paint the air together "If only this world had many of you we could have loved one another" Butterfly Flutter far Better fly high like the star you are Colorless worm Alone in the blur Not anymore But so much more. ~Epic Monkey
