Set The Butterflies Free

〜VERSE 1〜

You said you fell for my eyes and melted your world with my smile

The way you looked at me made my heart go wild

But I haven't seen you in a month

Did you fall out of love?


Out of sight out of mind

You blamed it on time

Was that really the reason why


The way you put your arms around my waist

And the way I touched your face

Was all that love we shared just a waste

The memories are fading to shades of gray

Now we're just an extinguished flame


Beauty's temporary

And so were we

You left with the summer breeze


〜PRE-CHORUS〜

All we had crumbles to dust

I guess my love just wasn't enough

It's hard to stand up when I built my world around the two of us

Now half of me's gone and I'm barely holding on


〜CHORUS〜

You used to give me butterflies every time I looked into your eyes

Now we exchange silence as if something died

You used to make my heart beat but now it's flatlined

I know there's no rewriting destiny

What's meant to be will be

So to give myself peace

I'll set the butterflies free


〜VERSE 2〜

The way I fit into your arms it was like you were made for me

You said I was your missing puzzle piece

We fit together perfectly

Life with you was heavenly


Then it all went south

All the lights blew out

Turns out you couldn't stay around


〜PRE-CHORUS〜

All we had crumbles to dust

I guess my love just wasn't enough

It's hard to stand up when I built my world around the two of us

Now half of me's gone and I'm barely holding on


〜CHORUS〜

You used to give me butterflies every time I looked into your eyes

Now we exchange silence as if something died

You used to make my heart beat but now it's flatlined

I know there's no rewriting destiny

What's meant to be will be

So to give myself peace

I'll set the butterflies free


〜BRIDGE〜

I wish I could fly away with them

And ride the winds of freedom

I'd soar through the sky

and leave the past behind


〜PRE-CHORUS〜

In the next cycle of life

Maybe the stars will finally align

And you'll stay by my side forever mine till the end of time

My life won't be complete without you next to me


〜CHORUS〜

Cause you still give me butterflies each time I look into your eyes

I want to pierce the silence and revive what died

Jumpstart my heart and bring me back to life

I know there's no rewriting destiny

But I still want you badly

There's no giving myself peace

I can't set the butterflies free

Cause I still want you to love me
