Butterfly
R. Guarino

I see it all today
Everything, and everyone knows
How I threw it all away
Everything, and everyone

Now my spirit's frayed
And all the ends
They've never been so
Hard to tear away

And now I'll never know
Just what might have been

Tell me you can see me
Tell me how are you today

The memories are strange
Like butterflies
They flutter by, and
Flicker as they fade

And I push them away like
Mid-summer daylight

CHORUS:
Tell me you can see me
Tell me how are you today
Tell me you can hear me
Tell me how are you today

SOLO

The mountains sing
I found my way alone
The skies are blue today

But when you see yourself
Getting close to symmetry
The parallels can change

CHORUS

It wasn't for victory
It wasn't for pain
It was things that I could gain
From you

It wasn't for silver
It wasn't for gold
It was secrets I could hold
Over you

And for you...

It wasn't for silver
It wasn't for gold
It was just things that I could hold
Over you

It wasn't for victory
It wasn't for pain
It was things that I could gain
From you

And for you...

This isn't for memories
This isn't for tears
This is how I hide my fears
From you
