lyrics

I've bee trying
to find a way to say that we
dismember the laughter when we
argue and deceive
everything so quietly
guarded by
a butterfly

Ushered by and then into
the relic of the morning dew
better those who left as new
guarded by
a butterfly

So let's try not to
try not to mess things up this time
a little piece of reason tucked away inside the rhyme
we cannot go to sleep and my
mouth is getting dry
pray for the strength of
a butterfly

Dirt turns into doves and then
two may become three
I've been everything that I know...
I know how to be

I'm clever enough to know better than to try
and by the look of things ...anyway...
it seems like you and I
we are guarded by
a butterfly
