Butterfly On A Battlefield

Our blissful ignorance, a comfortable haze
The wolf not far from the door
A line is drawn and the challenge is laid
There's no peace anymore
Sparks fly, the powder is dry
Big shock, we come undone
Blind colours, the black and the white
We aim and fire our guns

There's a flag that's flying, it's tattered and burned
And through all this violence, what have we learned
Through the smoke and fire (There's) a glimmer of hope
There's an angel singing
A butterfly on a battlefield

We lower our guns and our eyes fill with tears
We see invisible lines
The media machine starts droning once more
Its rhetoric fills our minds
Lonely, my bothers in arms
Fool's war, nobody wins
Show me the reason we fight
But still the battle begins

There's a flag that's flying, it's tattered and burned
And through all this violence (Tell me) what have we learned
Through the smoke and fire, a glimmer of hope
There's a new beginning
A butterfly on a battlefield

Sparks fly, the dust burns our eyes
Bad news for everyone
Show me the reason we die
We aim our guns and we fire

There's a flag that's flying, it's tattered and burned
And through all this violence (Tell me) what have we learned
Through the smoke and fire (There's) a glimmer of hope
There's an angel singing
A butterfly on a battlefield
A butterfly on a battlefield
A butterfly on a battlefield
A butterfly on a battlefield
