A winking of light in the shadow down

you followed it without suspicion and now

slowly your conscience is fading away

smothered by a painful torpidity haze



Helpless you're wondering how and why

you end up paralysed by invisible wires

a flash of awareness, finally you see

the spiders close on in the web they're weaving



Slimy and spiteful, they can't recognize

that they're merely leading a pretence of life

butterfly, you've got nothing to share

with those cunning treacherous planners of traps



Fly, fly away...



Let them play their low-comedy

and die away in their meanness

They don't deserve but pity

Their whole lives are not worth

a single beating of your heart



You dance in your flights with all rainbow's hues

the sun and the breeze kiss and caress your beauty

who hatches in darkness is envious of this

and tries to constrain you in the same poverty



Fly, fly away...



Let them play their low-comedy

and die away in their meanness

They don't deserve but pity

Their whole lives are not worth

a single beating of your heart



As you thrashed around to hole the cocoon

you must find the strength for this new birth

Your spirit belongs to the sky

they will not prevent you from flying



Look, how small they seem from here

from the heights of your freedom

They don't deserve but pity

Underneath your wings blows the passion

they can not know nor even steal



Let them play their low-comedy

and die away in their meanness

They don't deserve but pity

Their whole lives are not worth

a single beating of your heart
