Plastic Butterfly Wings

Info

She paints the world a bright azure
Tames lions and wolves so wild
I'm telling you, I  am sure
She is the one and only you could ever find

Her words are all right
If she smiles the world comes to life
Gloomy places became so bright
She is my glow, my world, my light.

But all light will cast a shadow
No matter where you hide, it is next to follow
The happiness she cause is actually sorrow
The world she painted a light blue is actually black in color

I now know the truth
That she uses bullet filled songs to shoot
She stitches those butterfly wings
With crimson thread and pale black rings

She is a wasp. Never a colorful butterfly
She didn't make us smile. She made us cry
Our sufferings for her is a sight
She didn't give shine. She takes away light.

I confronted her for her lies
She said sorry and that its normal, its alright
But it is never fine.
