Hide your eyes from me
A thousand butterflies sparkled in your eyes
A different kind of love is born into the sky...
The day turns to night and the music stops...
It goes quiet when you say goodbye...
I open my mouth to let out the lies that would make you stay and bury the hurt
I fall into the earth and lather my skin in dirt
I embrace the purgatory that i'm worth
Fly away, fly away... Leave me down here
Spread your wings and leave me with nobody to talk to
Fly away, fly away... Take the life with you as you go
Leave me alone with nothing to take the place of you...
As I watch you leave, you hide your eyes from me...
Countless days and endless nights i've tried doing what's right
While I face the war in me, I see couples taking flight
They were all strong enough to be lifted and freed
But i'm still waiting for answers down on my knees
The waiting makes me tired... It never comes to an end
Nothing fills me with the same life that I felt when you looked at me
Fly away, fly away... Leave me grounded by nothingness
Fill your lungs with your freedom, i'll fill mine with darkness
Fly away, fly away, take the love as you soar
Paint the skies with your dozen shades of happiness and i'll paint my heart grey...
As I watch you leave... As I watch you ascend...
You embrace your freedom and hide your eyes from me...
