SpyGame - The Illusion Of A Butterfly

The Illusion Of A Butterfly

With just one breath of contempt you fill the room
Only stand for a martyr but die for the dead
I question your motives as all I can see in your mirror
Is the placid rejection of genuine repulse
Does your agenda allow unscheduled interruption
Or can time rearrange for your convenience
Burn my eyes shut just in case I saw you tonight
Then object as you know damn well I just looked away

Don't lie to me
I wish you could see her face now
You terrorise me in the only way a butterfly could
Don't satisfy me
Become the only decision I am
Anatomise me
Take all you find away

And I smile at the only reflection that's left
Not your favourite
You know that as well as I
Find compassion and propagate my antidote
Just one minute
You've already left and it's time
To ransack the jury for evidence left
Don't you judge me
The greatest fears are deserved
By the weekend this all will be washed clean again
This is broken
So carry on and help me escape

Make it all disappear
I want you to take it away

With my next breath I fill the room with vengeance
So die as a martyr or stand for the dead
You question my motives as all you can see in my mirror
Is the genuine rejection of placid repulse
This interruption of my scheduled agenda
Rearranges my convenience as time allows
You saw me and burnt my eyes shut in case
I object as you know damn well I just stared back

Don't lie to me
I wish she could see your face now
You terrorise me in the only way a butterfly could
Don't satisfy me
Becomes the decision I am
Anatomise me
Take all you can away

And I smile at the only reflection that's left
It's my favourite
You know that as well as I
Find compassion and propagate my antidote
Not one minute
You've already left and it's time
To ransack the jury for evidence left
I won't judge you
The greatest fears are deserved
By the weekend this all will be washed clean again
You are broken
So carry on and help me escape

Make it all disappear
I want you to take it away

I want this illusion to end
I need this dream to retreat
A nightmare of heresy
A vision of madness
Now down by the river you wait
Smiling and looking for her
Embracing your solitude
Your tongue spreads false witness

Don't lie to me
I wish you could see her face now
You terrorise me in the only way a butterfly could
Don't satisfy me
Became the decision I am
Anatomise me
Take all you will away

And I smile at the only reflection that's left
No ones favourite
You know that as well as I
Find compassion and propagate my antidote
With one minute
You've already left and it's time
To ransack the jury for evidence left
You just judge me
The greatest fears are deserved
By the weekend this all will be washed clean again
I am broken
So carry on and help me escape

Help me escape
