Soft Diamonds, Steel Pipes & Iron/ Butterfly Rising

from Chiaroscuro by A Flower in Disguise

/

lyrics

The haze is gone
But I can’t will myself to look

Froze to the glass panes of my palace
Now frosted and stained
Even after the rain and the seasons change
Not even the falling soft diamonds can wash it away
The tears froze to daggers midfall
Challenging everything prototypical

Face after face it’s the same thing
Chip one and tear it away, there’s the frustration
And the pain, more concentrated
Through the smile
Through the laugh

Letting the warmth of light come in
But the cold sting emanates from within
Made my bones wind chimes of steel pipes and iron
Set the butterfly rising

Froze to the glass panes of my palace
Now frosted and stained
Holding artificial rainbows
Even after the rain and the seasons change
Not even the falling soft diamonds can wash it away
The tears froze to daggers midfall
Challenging everything prototypical

Face after face it’s the same thing
Chip one and tear it away, there’s the frustration
And the pain, more concentrated
Through the smile
Through the laugh

Letting the warmth of light come in
But the cold sting emanates from within
Made my bones wind chimes of metal pipes and iron
Set the butterfly rising
