Butterfly

Gabriel Leão

Compositor: Gabriel Leão Santana

It's coming after me
I can feel it, I can feel it
Snake alert, I hear the hiss
This time you won't catch me unaware

So small
It was still so hard to hide
Flying over people's shoulders
Hope to stay alive
Butterfly
All huge outside
Butterfly-y-y

It's coming after me
I can feel it, I can feel it
Every color in me now exposed
For the world to see

So small
But I saw the threats in sight
Wished I was a caterpillar
In my hide
Butterfly
Left the cocoon and don't know why
Butterfly-y-y-y

It's coming a-
Me, me, me, me

When you met me
I think I knew the risk of diving again
But I was still unsure
I tell you my secrets
We trip by the sea
Played your favorite songs
You caught me vulnerable
Bottle up your shit, boys
That's what they teach
Emotion's a poison
We drink like liquor
Analyzed your inflections
Your bad poetry
Lies I would sense
My wings now closed
Enslaved to everything
Through delicacy
I wasted my life, just like Rimbaud
The changing of seasons
I can't face the winter
Won't just sit alone on a stoic throne

You come after me, you come after me
And I can feel it, I can feel it
You come after me, you come after me
And I can feel it, I feel everything
