I have no idea why I wrote this because I am an absolute optimist but yesterday I sat down at the piano and in 10 min this is what came out. ha ha
Lyrics (c)2010
Butterfly wings, fly me up to the sky on these things, just to find that the stars are dust
Why must I go on living life, believing all these lies
Not knowing who to trust
Chorus:
Because they see paint but I see mud
They see rain and I see blood
They see a ocean and I see a flood
They see what's to come and I see what was
Verse:
Got my lips painted red
Headband on my head
Sunglasses on to shield from the sun
I wanna stay home and write a song
while everybody else wants to be out having fun

repeat chorus

Bridge:
Is it you or is it me
Is it you or is it me
I don't know what to believe
you see a river and i see a stream
you see a mote and I see a beam
you see a forest and I see a tree.

repeat chorus

butterfly wings fly me up to the sky on these things just to find that the stars are dust.
