Black Butterfly - Scott Stapp

Sometimes it starts with a silent curse Sometimes it doesn't waste time You still think I look upon this with hatred in my mind I won't lie It took some time But I know one thing It took me away from! All the things love gave me So I had to let things go! I can go another round despite you. I'm still healing No I'm not reeling Yes I'm feeling This is my fight song Now I'm left with a scar to reverse. Yes another burden to fight I guess I made it this far so I know things will be alright I won't lie I will survive I'm still healing No I'm not reeling Yes I'm feeling This is my fight song But I know one thing It takes me away from All the things love gave me So I had to let things go! It's so hard to forget But I must let go... and begin To live again And not give in I figured out I will land on solid ground I will land on solid ground I will go another round I can go another round despite you. I'm still healing No I'm not reeling Yes I'm feeling This is my fight song!

Pull back the curtain come on in. Through the stain glass windows of where I've been. Some parts holy. Some parts dark as sin. The time has come to take off my mask. Watch the scars spill secrets from my past. This freak show won't define who I am. What I thought was all of my life story. Turns out it was only just one page. It's a new beginning, I have got so much left to say. I'm dying to breathe in every moment. I'm dying to make up for lost time. I'm dying to let go and finally feel what real love is. I'm dying to live. I'm dying to live. To see those things I could never see, When they have always been right in front of me. To write the song the world forever sings. Pictures painted in the sky. The wonder in my child's eyes. I'm learning how to fly with broken wings. I'm dying to breath in every moment. I'm dying to make up for lost time. I'm dying to let go and finally feel what real love is. I'm dying to start this whole thing over. I'm dying to see with brand new eyes. I'm dying to love myself enough to just forgive. I'm dying to live. I'm dying to live. I'm dying to live. I'm dying to live. I had to go to hell to find my heaven Forty feet I had to fall from grace Everything's so clear when you've got one foot in the grave I'm dying to breath in every moment. I'm dying to make up for lost time. I'm dying to let go and finally feel what real love is. I'm dying to start this whole thing over. I'm dying to see with brand new eyes. I'm dying to love myself enough to just forgive. I'm dying to live. I'm dying to live. I'm dying to live. I'm dying to live.
