Butterfly Hurricane

Butterfly amplified
into a hurricane
And again it lifts me off my feet and blows my mind

Follow the human herd
against a spinning world
Until it turns so fast they're walking past themselves

Don't beat your wings in my direction
A victim of unnatural selection
That could be me
Floating down

Stand atop mountain high
Shouting out "Why do I
Have nothing at all to say, I crawl from day to day"

Sticks and stones may bust up your bones
But silence never leaves you alone
And when I jump I'll be
Floating down

Kisses blown overflow
into a hurricane
And again it lifts me off my feet and blows my mind

Don't beat your wings in my direction
A victim of unnatural selection
That could be me
Floating down
