[Verse 1] You wear the night along your wings Ink in the veins of broken things A quiet shape above the flame You leave the ash but keep your name [Pre-Chorus] The room goes still, the colors bite A warning burns across the white [Chorus] Dark butterfly, cut through the yellow sky You turn the wound into a way to fly Dark butterfly, don't let the fear decide If you must fall, fall with your wings alive [Verse 2] Your powder stains my fingertips A map of all the near-misses The air tastes sharp, the floor gives way You pull the dawn from yesterday [Pre-Chorus] The room goes still, the colors bite A warning burns across the white [Chorus] Dark butterfly, cut through the yellow sky You turn the wound into a way to fly Dark butterfly, don't let the fear decide If you must fall, fall with your wings alive [Bridge] No cage, no cure, no clean escape No borrowed shape, no softer name When every color turns to threat You choose the part they can't forget [Final Chorus] Dark butterfly, cut through the yellow sky You turn the wound into a way to fly Dark butterfly, with every scar in sight You make the dark a place to come alive [Outro] Keep your wings alive Keep your wings alive
