Butterfly, How Long It Takes To Die lyrics

If you've ever really seen the sunrise

You'd see how many times it tries

If you've ever really seen the sunset

You'd see how long it takes to die

You can see the butterfly has landed

Landing on your face, it licks your eye

You can feel its tongue making a teardrop

You will see how long it takes to cry

You can see the universe beginning

Making a new sun in a new sky

You can see the universe is ending

Making a new dark in the new night
