Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

I'll explore the night
I'll stumble on anything
A life inside a life
Fragile, paper thin
Did the audience get to their feet?
Hey man, how are you doing
It's so hard to just get through it?
'Cause black eyes that colour surround
They're just butterfly wings
They're just butterfly wings
All the last goodbyes
Scattered on our way
Reaching for the prize
Never seen again
Did the audience get to their feet?
Hey man, how are you doing
It's so hard to just get through it?
'Cause black eyes that colour surround
They're just butterfly wings
They're just butterfly wings
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
Hey man, how are you doing?
'Cause you left town before I flew in
'Cause black eyes the colour surround
They're just butterfly wings
They're just butterfly wings
They're just butterfly wings
They're just butterfly wings
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
It's just patterns in my hand and then it's nothing
