Angry Butterfly

(album: Open Book - 2019)

Wrapped up in plastic
Asleep in a straitjacket
Solitary's where I learned to dream

Took the chains that held me back and
I stretched them like elastic
Snuck a chainsaw into quarantine

I'm waking up an angry butterfly
Constellations in my eyes
And darkness in my veins
I've seen too much to censor myself now
I found beauty in a breakdown
And when I clawed my way out, I was changed
I was changed

I'm a stumbling contradiction
It is what it isn't
A ballerina wearing combat boots
Societal resistance
Emotional crucifixion
Going through hell gave me one hell of a attitude

I'm waking up an angry butterfly
Constellations in my eyes
And darkness in my veins
I've seen too much to censor myself now
I found beauty in a breakdown
And when I clawed my way out, I was changed

I'm too tired to lie
And I'm too loud to hide

I'm waking up an angry butterfly
Constellations in my eyes
And darkness in my veins
I've seen too much to censor myself now
I found beauty in a breakdown
And when I clawed my way out, I was changed
I was changed
I was changed
When I clawed my way out, I was changed
