when the truth flies tonight
when the fear starts to throb tonight
i’ll shudder again and close my eyes
i’ll fall onto the broken ground away
in solitude from this murdered reality
when the tears start to flow tonight
i’ll grab some invented life and lie
and figure out some sort of way
to inhale, exhale or at least to keep myself alive
when the screams start to yell tonight
in my mind i’ll run somewhere alone to hide
from the incessant voices in my head
that try to tell me who i am
...i am a butterfly with broken wings
who is trying to fly out of this spider web of twisted dreams
that i’ve spun around myself
i’ll shudder again and close my eyes
i’ll fall onto the broken ground away
in solitude from this murdered reality
when the tears start to flow tonight
i’ll grab some invented life and lie
and figure out some sort of way
to inhale, exhale or at least to keep myself alive
when the screams start to yell tonight
in my mind i’ll run somewhere alone to hide
from the incessant voices in my head
that try to tell me who i am
...i am a butterfly with broken wings
who is trying to fly out of this spider web of twisted dreams
that i’ve spun around myself
