Vultures And Butterflies

Consumed by grief, I was so lost
So far away without you
For years and years, I blamed myself
But I couldn't find all those mistakes
The dreams we shared were just a lie
When you said you'd never let me down
You made me weak, so fragile

The struggle within, my breath burns like stars
Pleading to hold you tight just one last time
But forced to believe I deserved every scar
The pain and the anguish screaming from inside

As deadly as a vulture
As fragile as a butterfly
Both dancers within nature

You lied to me as you drew a smile
Smashed my chest like shattered glass
You made me weak, you broke my heart

Pieces they scatter far and wide
For each shard collides every tear I cried
A torture's enforced, the unspoken words
The pain and the anguish screaming from inside

As deadly as a vulture
As fragile as a butterfly
Both dancers within nature
Circling till they die

Love is a promise so bright, now ruined, crushed and undone
To end all our memories, to be dust, our flesh and bones

As deadly as a vulture
As fragile as a butterfly
Both dancers within nature
Circling to its sacrifice
As deadly as a vulture
As fragile as a butterfly
Both dancers within nature
