    light a candle for me, if you want to
    for i have slipped away from you
    a butterfly
    tinselly
    yet beautiful
    cannot live
    when it's caged
    you prefered to lock what's inside of me
    'cause you never wanted to know
    who i am
    now you can sing an elegy for me, if you want to
    for my shattered self
    fallen from sanity
    fragile
    yet alive
    i am
    and i had to pull myself out of all that alone
    'cause all you did was laughing it off
    who i am
    because if you would just look out
    you'd realize what life's actually about
    we all are
    tinselly
    yet beautiful
    butterflies
    caged to freedom
    colorless individuals
    left to fall
    so color my wings
    color these rainbows
    in other shades
    of grey

    note: english is not my mother tongue, so there might be mistakes :&
