lyrics

Butterfly
Fly away before the hurricane can catch you in your sleep
Take the sky
You don't realize you've sown way more than you could ever reap
People try
To find meaning in the way that you have flapped your ragged wings
They don't know
That although you caused the storm it was by doing mundane things

Run, just go, don't delay
Hide your light, hide away

Butterfly
You forgot to close your window when the hail began to fall
Flowers grow
But it's only for a second before crows begin to call
Did you know
When you fluttered through your garden you'd kick up more than a leaf?
Time to go
You flashed your colors to find friends but predators have shown their teeth

Run, just go, don't delay
Hide your light, hide away

Used to be
When your scales flashed in the sunlight your reflection kept you warm
Trapped within
What was once kaleidoscope has now become a roiling swarm
Get thee hence
There's a danger in pretending things are how they used to be
Consequence
Doesn't mean that it's your fault but now it's time to flee

Run, just go, don't delay
Hide your light, hide away

Follow me
Don't be fooled by all the porch lights as they start to glow
Chase the moon
I can't hold the doors much longer so you've got to go
Cut the rope
Find your purchase before all the cards begin to fall
Just take hope
Pack your things before the pale collectors pin you to the wall

Run, just go, don't delay
Hide your light, hide away
Hide your light, hide away
Hide your light, hide away
