Butterflies
pretty little lies
so innocent when flying on wings of beauty and grace
can only hurt more when no one knows
no one cares
like butterflies
hard to find one that hasn't been torn
but once found, it won't leave your mind
innocent at first
a cloud of beautiful words
these lies warp your thoughts, feeling, being
the way you see everything
vision distorted
now, when the butterflies are gone
when the pretty words cease to exist
you see the truth
just pretty lies
so innocent when flying on wings of beauty and grace
can only hurt more when no one knows
no one cares
like butterflies
hard to find one that hasn't been torn
but once found, it won't leave your mind
innocent at first
a cloud of beautiful words
these lies warp your thoughts, feeling, being
the way you see everything
vision distorted
now, when the butterflies are gone
when the pretty words cease to exist
you see the truth
just pretty lies
