A Life of Chasing Butterflies

I thought if I could break these chains, Remove the burden and your blame, A hollowed boy on borrowed time, All substance lacking, his sunken pride. I thought if I could grow some wings, I'd fly so high no one could see, I'd look back down and stare at you, Conspicuously fixated, I'm glaring at you. This is not the way I want it to be, I look in your eyes, and your eyes they tell me, That you need to be saved from a sorrowed state, A disillusioned mind, Time flies over us but leaves his shadow behind. I hold hope in my heart that we'll make amends, And at the end of the road I'll find my friend again. I thought if I could grow some wings, I'd fly so high no one could see, I'd look back down and stare at you, Determined and fixated that I'm gonna' pull you through. This is not the way I want it to be, I look in your eyes, and your eyes they tell me, That you need to be helped to be redeemed, So stop living your life, and start living your dreams. And start living your dreams. I'm grasping for a hand that doesn't have the heart to hold on, You're a ship that's sinking but we'll find the strength to sail on. We aren't defined by the days it's by the moments, So when you're falling I will fall too, When you're flying I'm with you. This is not the way I want it to be, I look in your eyes, and your eyes they tell me, That you need to be helped to be redeemed, So stop living your life, and start living your dreams. And start living your dreams
