You should know that my smile was leading to this It's all in this letter Strange how your wings ache like a son of a bitch Just when you're, just when you're finally better
(fly away) Butterfly
Someone like you just better watch where you step People have been known to bleed See how my words read like a kick in the head Sometimes that's just what you need
(fly away) Butterfly Butterfly
Fly away my butterfly Fly away Fly away my butterfly Fly away
Don't you know that my smile was misleading I have outgrown my cocoon By the time taht you read what you're reading I will have flown to the moon
Fly away my butterfly Fly away Fly away my butterfly Fly away...
Children behave That's what they say when we're together And watch how you play They don't understand and so we're
Runnin' just as fast as we can Holdin' on to one another's hand Tryin' to get away into the night And then you put your arms around me And we tumble to the ground And then you say
I think we're alone now There doesn't seem to be anyone around I think we're alone now The beating of our hearts is the only sound
Look at the way We gotta hide what we're doing 'Cause what would they say If they ever knew and so we're
Runnin' just as fast as we can Holdin' on to one another's hand Tryin' to get away into the night And then you put your arms around me And we tumble to the ground And then you say
I think we're alone now There doesn't seem to be anyone around I think we're alone now The beating of our hearts is the only sound
I think we're alone now There doesn't seem to be anyone around I think we're alone now The beating of our hearts is the only sound
Runnin' just as fast as we can Holdin' on to one another's hand Tryin' to get away into the night And then you put your arms around me And we tumble to the ground And then you say
I think we're alone now There doesn't seem to be anyone around I think we're alone now The beating of our hearts is the only sound
Repeat Chorus

I knew someday you?d need to find Something that you left behind Something I can?t give you
All these tears And like alight love disappears But hearts are good for souvenirs And memories are forever
All this time All in all Ie no regrets The sun still shines the sun still sets The heart forgives the heart forgets But what will I do now with all this time
One more kiss Even though it come to this Il close my eyes and make a wish Hoping you remember
All this time All in all Ie no regrets The sun still shines the sun still sets The heart forgives the heart forgets But what will I do now with all this time
Say goodbye Apart wel make another try But don?t be sorry if you cry Il be crying too
All this time All in all Ie no regrets The sun still shines the sun still sets The heart forgives the heart forgets But what will I do now with all this time
Do you believe that you're dead when you die Or do you believe in a soul You have the power to mess with their minds You've got them under control Everybody wants a piece of you To take them higher than they ever were on the ground *Cinnamon, Cinnamon Don't let them down Cinnamon, Cinnamon Don't let them down
Nobody sees that you smile when you lie You'll take that mask to your grave You know what you're doing God knows you're not blind You just don't want to be saved Line 'em up and knock 'em down You've taken everything and still keep coming around
Cinnamon, Cinnamon Don't let them down Cinnamon, Cinnamon Don't let them down
You have the power to mess with their lives They're under your control Everybody wants a piece of you
To take them higher than they ever were on the ground
Cinnamon, Cinnamon Don't let them down Cinnamon, Cinnamon Don't let them down
Cinnamon, Cinnamon Don't let them down Cinnamon Don't let them down
Oh Betty You know I loved you so I'm shattered It hurt so much to see you go
Give me your heart, I'll keep it beating And your blood will spill no more Oh I want to love you Betty But I can't 'Cause you closed the greatest of doors
Oh Betty Don't tell heaven where you've been Don't you know that needing love is not a sin
Give me your soul, I'll be it's keeper And the words I speak will be yours Oh I try to hate you Betty But I can't 'Cause you closed the greatest of doors
And the leaves are starting to fall from the trees again And I remember when And autumn wind sang a song of a sin But I wasn't ready Oh Betty
Oh Betty Don't tell heaven where you've been Didn't you know that needing love is not a sin
Give me your heart, I'll keep it beating And your blood will spill no more Oh I want to love you Betty But I can't 'Cause you closed the greatest of doors
Yes, yes there's a new world dawning Get dressed, quit dreaming you're falling Take notes and I'll tell you when you got it right No, no you can leave your attitude You're the only one it seems to matter to Count votes and you'll see it in a brand new light Why can't you be a man about it Let me turn you into someone new I'm screaming in a fan I doubt that any of my words will make it through This is your christening Find out what you been missing and I promise it'll make you fell better This is your christening The audience is listening
Baby, baby we're a perfect pairing Walk in the room and they can't stop staring I've gotten used to it, I've gotten used to you You'll never, never land another like me I think you're clever, please don't try to fight me Take notes and I'll tell you when you got it right Why can't you be a man about it Let me turn you onto something new I'm screaming in a fan I doubt that any of my words will make it through This is your christening Find out what you been missing and I promise it'll make you fell better This is your christening The audience is listening This is your christening Find out what you been missing and I promise it'll make you fell better This is your christening The audience is listening
Why can't you be a man about it (There's a new world dawning) We're swimming in a painted fountain (There's a new world dawning) This is your christening Find out what you been missing and I promise it'll make you fell better This is your christening The audience is listening This is your christening Find out what you been missing and I promise it'll make you fell better This is your christening The audience is listening
Sometimes I like to sit and watch the clouds for hours It's just so extra-ordinary Standing in the pouring rain just because it's raining It's all so fascinating All that I need is what I see or rather what I feel You believe what you wanna believe And that's alright with me And that's alright To feel what you're feeling You know it makes no difference to me And I don't mind, I don't need no reason If it's good enough for you It's good enough for me And if I told you I could see what you can't see Would you say it's my imagination 'Cause what is real is only your reality It needs no explanation All that I need is what I see or rather what I feel You believe what you wanna believe Ant that's alright with me And that's alright To feel what you're feeling You know it makes no difference to me And I don't mind, I don't need no reason If it's good enough for you It's good enough for me Sometimes it's hard To know which way to go Just when you think you won't figure it out You'll know
Sometimes I like to sit and watch the clouds for hours It's just so extra-ordinary Standing in the pouring rain just because it's raining It's all so fascinating And that's alright To feel what you're feeling You know it makes no difference to me And I don't mind, I don't need no reason All that I need is what I see or rather what I feel do you feel rather what I feel All that I need is do you feel rather what I feel
I don't like the way I feel But I don't understand Why I hide the things I do And I don't care who's wrong or right I just need a reason, A reason just to see it through
And I don't care if I've wasted all your time 'Cause there's dreams that go by And dreams that you find
And I know what you mean But I can't hear you With all the talking, with all the talking And I know how it seems But I can't find you With all the talking
I never mentioned love affairs That run through my mind And all the faces you won't see And you don't know your words have changed So you keep talking And there might be something for me
And I don't care if I've wasted all your time 'Cause there's dreams that go by And dreams that you find
And I know what you mean But I can't hear you With all the talking, with all the talking
And I know how it seems But I can't find you With all the talking
Can't you feel it Can't you see This world just gets me down When all at once you find a way To be satisfied
And I don't like the way I feel But I don't understand Why I hide the things I do And I don't care who's wrong or right I just need a reason, I need a reason, I need a reason
Oh I know what you mean But I can't hear you With all the talking, with all the talking And I know how it seems But I can't find you With all the talking, with all the talking
I know what you mean, I know what you mean, I know what you mean, I know what you mean
I got a feeling Everything's gonna be alright And I still find my way And I heard It's always darkest before the storm So come on let it rain
Everything was different when I was seventeen The world was so much brighter Now I finally found the truth Of what they hid for me That world was so much kinder
Silence Don't hear a sound But my own voice Silence Is what it is By my own choice
I believe That we were meant to learn from our mistakes And stumble along the way Now I know That people are gonna grap what they can take Then just turn away Everybody's searching But no one really knows the truth The world is upside down What it's all about right now Will soon turn to gray Their promises have faded
Silence Silence Silence Don't hear a sound But my own voice Silence Don't hear a sound But my own voice Silence Is what it is By my own choice
All my little merry friends Have turned their backs on me Excuse me if I'm jaded I'm so tired of people telling me How it should be Their promises have faded
Silence Silence Silence Don't hear a sound But my own voice Silence Don't hear a sound But my own voice Silence Is what it is By my own choice
Scarlet red drips from my veins What's wrong with me That I imagine such things And if only for a moment Let there be peace And how can I Live with this pain I don't have the strength To conquer this shame And if only for a moment Let there be peace
And tell me did you know That I still won't let it go And just maybe you're still flying free If only
Tell me why I'm left here alone I search for your voice But I should've known That if only for a moment You'd be with me
And tell me did you know That I still won't let it go And just maybe you're still flying free
If only I could change the way You were torn away from me I would never let you go I'd burn away the plans we made Pretending to believe That I am not afraid
And tell me did you know That I still won't let it go And just maybe you're still flying free And tell me did you know That I still won't let it go And just maybe you're still flying free
Am I in or am I out Don't pretend that you don't know what I'm talking about In your eyes I can see a reflection of someone it's clearly not me and you Keep walking like you've got somewhere else to go Keep talking like you don't care for me no more
Make a wish now baby and I'll try to make it come true But I feel this time I'll be losing you Butterfly, I'm gonna letcha go I know I've done the same thing ten times before and you...
Keep walking like you've got somewhere else to go Keep talking like you don't care for me Keep walking like you've got somewhere else to go Keep talking like you don't care for me no more.
And you ... Keep walking like you've got somewhere else to go Keep talking like you don't care for me Keep walking like you've got somewhere else to go Keep talking like you don't care for me no more. Butterfly, I'm gonna letcha go I know I've done the same thing ten times before and you
