Tracing your delicate throat
With my fingers
Taking in the soft skin
I will no longer feel.
The emotions run deep
As I gaze into your eyes
As you beg me to do this
Urging me on.
I could feel the life drain
From your frail body
As I straddled you
Hands pressed to your throat
Fly on
Fly on
Everything will be alright now
Fly on into the setting sun
The delicate rope that held us together
Was cut
Signifying our ending unity
Or our becoming one entity?
Memories flashed by my eyes
As I watched you fall
Yet fly away
At the same time
I can't tell anymore
If you are still beside me
For I can still feel your pulse
Under my burning hands
Fly on
Fly on
I can still feel you with me
Even as I was you fly into the setting sun
How could something like this
Bring us together as one?
I long to be with you once more.
I want to be a butterfly too
Why must I live like this?
With your presence
Flickering in and out
Of reality with me
How come you had to
Be the one who had
To sacrifice everything
And become a butterfly?
Fly on
Fly on
Everything will be alright
I am coming soon, don't worry
Fly on
Fly on
I'm coming
Look back and call my name
Fly on
Fly on
Look back and reach for me
Bring me with you
I want to be a butterfly too...
