Lyrics:
A BUTTERFLY music & lyrics: Ewa Ryks
B Like a butterfly
Over the sea
Over the ocean
Of meadows
With colorful flowers
Playing with them
Watching their shapes
Sucking their beauty
Never too low
To touch the ground
R I don’t know what you mean
I try to be
Kind, you’ll agree
Stay where I belong.
B Now’s the time
To see the world
As it is
To see
It’s pain, it’s dirt.
R Why should I look at things
That make me sick
That make me sick
I can’t look at them.
B Throwing away
Bad memories
Closing your eyes
To pain
To all that hurts.
R Why should I be involved
In helping guys
Who drink, take drugs
It’s all their fault.
B The poet said
That you will never
Deserve heaven
If you
Don’t touch the ground.
