Lyric a day thread

Hey everyone apologies if this has been done before but I thought it could be nice to have a space where we can share some lyrics we like, relate to, or just any we discover.

I thought I'd share some of the fun edits I do in my spare time :)

    "Butterfly, butterfly

    Where you gonna go tonight?

    Wish I was just like you

    Maybe then you'll take me high


    Away from it all again

    Away from my troubles and my sins

    Away from the fears inside

    Away from the tears I try to hide away

    Cause I just want to make you smile, but

    I know that'll take a while
    Cause I'm

    I'm tryin' to find myself


    I just want to make you proud, but


    I think that I'm runnin' out of time


    To figure it out"
    Butterfly - Umi

    These lyrics resonate with me a lot because it reminds me of my personal struggles and it put me at ease to know that there's a song out there that it on display. The music itself is soothing so it just adds to the easiness. :3

    Love this thread idea, I find such comfort in music and the lyrics. Just as I read this thread, this song came on my playlist and I love the messaging around how we can grow from our hardships, and that sometimes accepting that things don't work out exactly how we want, but there is beauty and value in the effort and work we have done, and continue to do (the bits we can control), regardless of the outcome, which is often outside of our control.

    "Please take the words to carry away
    There's others in need of the song
    We'll all bury our mothers before we would like
    But there's time left to make right today

    We are singing to comfort pain
    We all want to feel high again
    If my path is to worry, then I'll walk in shame
    Cause I'd rather find beauty in pain

    If we fail to accomplish the tasks we've begun
    The breath should fall short of the song
    And we measure the grace of the deeds that we've done
    To find peace with what's been pursued

    We are singing to comfort pain
    We all want to feel high again
    If my path is to worry, then I'll walk in shame
    Cause I'd rather find beauty in pain

    Well we're low in the barrel, we're long overdue
    With little left to invest
    And were filled with the efforts that most times were empty
    Find strength still somehow to go on"
