Burning The Butterflies

[00:02.72] Repeat after me, my child
[00:07.16] I accept (I accept)
[00:09.01] My God-given right (My God-given right)
[00:13.07] To destroy anything (To destroy anything)
[00:17.34] Created by God (Created by God)
[00:21.26] Amen (Amen)
[00:23.86] Will you take it as a challenge? (I will)
[01:31.21] When I saw this world for the first time
[01:36.69] It was enough for me
[01:40.94]
[01:44.53] Now banished from this world in my mind's eye
[01:49.42] Its charms I can no longer see
[01:53.97]
[01:57.37] With no light behind blind eyes
[02:01.02] I'm burning the butterflies
[02:05.69]
[02:15.83] There's more to this world than my senseless dreams
[02:20.34] Yet I perish by the mirage I seek
[02:24.98]
[02:27.44] When the chance of this world even birthing me
[02:33.09] Was pure improbability
[02:38.21]
[02:41.59] With no sight beyond this mind
[02:45.19] I'm burning the butterflies
[02:49.95]
[02:54.36] Just when we begin, we end
[02:56.56] With no way to replace or do this again
[02:59.73] We're burning the butterflies
[03:02.54] Right when we've come alive
[03:06.34] With all nature's built in the chrysalis of time
[03:09.52] Caught up in the flames of our greed and our lies
[03:12.97] We're recklessly lighting up
[03:15.38] The fumes of this tragic demise
[03:18.10] I say goodbye to the prize of life
[03:22.74] I'm burning the butterflies
[03:27.30] With my wings spread for taking flight
[03:30.97] I'm burning the butterflies
[03:35.56] Where's my mind? Have I lost the fight?
[03:39.17] I'm burning the butterflies
[03:45.46]
[04:06.67] Time to die under fiery skies
[04:09.93] I burn too and I never shall fly
[04:14.10] We never shall fly
[04:18.03] Time to die under fiery skies
[04:21.40] I burn too and I never shall fly
[04:25.63] We never shall fly
[04:29.53] Time to die under fiery skies
[04:32.94] I burn too and I never shall fly
[04:37.14] We never shall fly
[04:40.31] No, never shall fly
[04:44.06] Burning the butterflies
[04:48.17]
