Eaten By Butterflies

Jessie's death was beautiful
We found her in the garden at 6am
Murder is a musical; Coda so poetic
The misery seems gone

My best friend was eaten by butterflies
A sight so elegant, I couldn't hide my eyes
My best friend was eaten right in front of me
Bloody wings still fluttering
Until her heart stopped beating

(ah ah ah ah ah)

Drawn in by the beauty, captivated by the mess
A broken fascination; my eyes swelled and white turned red
The calm and gentle ARMY that flew in to collect
Symmetrical yet punctual
They feasted while I gently wept

My best friend was eaten by butterflies
A sight so elegant, I couldn't hide my eyes
My best friend was eaten right in front of me
Bloody wings still fluttering
Until her heart stopped beating

(ah ah ah ah ah)

Jessie's death was beautiful
Still see her in the garden every now and then
Murder is a musical; Coda so poetic
The misery seems gone

My best friend was eaten by butterflies
A sight so elegant, I couldn't hide my eyes
My best friend was eaten right in front of me
Bloody wings still fluttering
Until her heart stopped beating

(ah ah ah ah ah)
(ah ah ah ah ah)

Blood, slowly dripping from the flower
Your blood, seeping through the soil
Your eyes will be gone before tomorrow
My heart will forever be in mourning
But a new life will begin
