Miller Mann - Butterflies With Broken Wings Lyrics

Smiles metamorphing into frowns
All these clues that I have found
And I don't mind saying
All our causes and effects
Can't stop the wreck
Butterflies with broken wings
Souls at attention by the gate
Where they're dealt these hands of fate
But the price they're paying
Won't yield enough paste or glue
To see them through
Do you perceive the words I sing
I know the hands of time
Like a book that's seldom read
May induce a state of mind
Where we receive our daily bread
Awash with realities
Despite the offerings we bring
But still somehow we never see
These butterflies with broken wings
Lives once they're taken aren't returned
A hard way to have to learn
That a gift that's broken
Is sure to bring a scary curse
Then it gets worse
Butterflies with broken wings
Tears... gelled emotion on the slide
And there's just no way to hide
As the spell is spoken
How everything fades away
Now that's a day!
Do you perceive the words I sing
To see the baby truly blessed
Like a gun that's cocked
Loaded to go
There'll be no time to second guess
Just use your mind
And then you'll know
Aware of possibilities
The notes
The songs you choose to sing
Discovering reasons to be
For butterflies with broken wings
In the wind
Coming 'round again
World without end amen
In the wind
Coming 'round again
World without end amen
