bluddie lie

Unwrap my butterfly wings
Let’s see what hope brings
The bloody lies you feed me
Can’t free me, free me eternally

Shamelessly falling apart
Take heart or I’ll tear apart
I’m falling apart from the start
I don’t know where to start
When you force feed me lies
When you wave your goodbyes
When you reject my cries
When you lower my highs
Bloody lies, bloody lies, you left me with
Bloody lies, bloody lies, in a bemused labyrinth 

Nighttime comes and goes
My glowing sun grows and glows
The bloody lies you reduced me to
Makes me feel blue with rue, it’s so cruel…what you put me through, oh you…

Shamelessly falling apart
Take heart or I’ll tear apart
I’m falling apart from the start
I don’t know where to start
When you force feed me lies
When you wave your goodbyes
When you reject my cries
When you lower my highs
Bloody lies, bloody lies, you left me with
Bloody lies, bloody lies, in a bemused labyrinth 

Shamelessly falling apart
Take heart or I’ll tear apart
I’m falling apart from the start
I don’t know where to start
When you force feed me lies
When you wave your goodbyes
When you reject my cries
When you lower my highs
Bloody lies, bloody lies, you left me with
Bloody lies, bloody lies, in a bemused labyrinth 

End this grief
I need relief
I am this winter leaf…
Willing to be a flower in Spring
Withering apart
From the start
Take heart

Shamelessly falling apart
Take heart or I’ll tear apart
I’m falling apart from the start
I don’t know where to start
When you force feed me lies
When you wave your goodbyes
When you reject my cries
When you lower my highs
Bloody lies, bloody lies, you left me with
Bloody lies, bloody lies, in a bemused labyrinth 

Shamelessly falling apart
Take heart or I’ll tear apart
I’m falling apart from the start
I don’t know where to start
When you force feed me lies
When you wave your goodbyes
When you reject my cries
When you lower my highs
Bloody lies, bloody lies, you left me with
Bloody lies, bloody lies, in a bemused labyrinth 

Unwrap my butterfly wings
Let’s see what hope brings
The bloody lies you feed me
Can’t free me, free me eternally
The bloody lies you feed me
Let’s see what hope brings
Unwrap my butterfly wings
