Lyrics
V1
Butterflies is an order of beautiful creatures
Is the result of the heavens in a seasonal molt
Rather possesses celestial delicate features
As an angelic attempt of the spirit to reach us
PRECH
For all our sins we've gotten love
From our Father, Who art above
Who sent his son to bleed alone
And then archangels came along
CH
Shut your eyes and go to sleep
While they weep
...and weep
V2
Maybe the night raises hackles of stars in the bluster
Could be a moth shedding shimmering dust off its wings
Lulling the planets with shivering clusters of luster
Bearing ephemeral bliss and delaying disasters
BR
I know the day will come
When it'll no longer hurt
But too late to revert
We'll all wake up
In a wasteland
PRECH
For all our sins we've gotten love
From our Father, Who art above
Who sent his son to bleed alone
And then archangels came along
CH
Shut your eyes and go to sleep
While they weep
...and weep
While they weep and weep...
