Butterfly lyrics

Spread the fragile wings, reach for the sky

Leave all sadness behind

Higher and higher to reach the stars

A mere butterfly in the storm of life

From earth you are born

And back to earth you are drawn

Death's own all the same

The wise, the strong, the frail

Spread the fragile wings, reach for it all

Sun burns the wings, greedy ones must fall

A dreamer soul burns like a candle

Lit from both ends

Thirsty heart can never be quenched

From earth you are born

And back to earth you are drawn

Death's own all the same

The wise, the strong, the frail

Remember when you were born

At that same moment

You were sentenced to die

And to carry the burden of life

Our dreams are built into castles

And those walls will crumble down

Nothing is forever, to each his own

Spread the fragile wings, reach it for the last time

The tireless hope to live a good life

Our hope is in vain, our wishes will never come true

Each life will end, every dream will die

Remember when you were born

At that same moment

You were sentenced to die

And to carry the burden of life

Our dreams are built into castles

And those walls will crumble down

Nothing is forever, to each his own
