12 / Butterflies

The preface of this night
Brought winds that seemed so kind
But they say that most violet skies
Burn before pretty nights
And so suddenly
We're all casualties
From this fear that breeds
It will not let us breathe

From uncertainty
I'm lost beneath the nightfall
But divinity
Drew me a path from stars
Like butterflies of clarity

People scurry home to flee
Scared of what the unknown brings
But in their panic, could not see
Beyond the chaos, there is peace
'Cause so suddenly
Beauty blasts the scene
Spreads across the street
For all our eyes to see

'Cause uncertainty
Once trapped me in the nightfall
But divinity
Drew me a path from stars
These butterflies of clarity


So clarity, come and smother me
Comfort me with those wings that mend
Patiently, I'm gathering
The strength I need to stand again

'Cause uncertainty
Comes back with every nightfall
When the sun's asleep
Chaos wakes and comes for me
But divinity
Will be there with these stars
So just wait and see
I'll take flight across this sea
With butterflies of clarity
