Butterflies Lyrics - Singles - Vermillion Skye

Wash away their color they're just gray 

Hold them under water they can't fly away 

Still I dread this crawling on my skin 

The butterflies have found me, they want in 

Bring down the monochrome; shelter my eyes 

Give me something to calm the nerves 

The perfect disguise 

Draped in silence so they can't see 

Let it wash over me 

There you are fading through 

Pressure's on, there's so much to do 

Build yourself ten feet tall 

Make them run, you can chase them all 

You're the hero, you're the star 

Who stands in the spotlight leading us far 

Beyond the doubts we all must climb 

To reach the other side 

Feet of stone, heart of glass 

No balance here and it makes me laugh 

Lift me up, high above 

Past the line; give them what they want 

Time to cast off and face the sea 

Lost in glory for posterity 

"No need for fear" the Captain cries 

"We'll reach the other side" 

Oh, they're only butterflies 

Oh, they're only butterflies, only butterflies...
