Butterfly

 
I've been through the highest of highs
I've been through the lowest of lows
I've been a butterfly and a bee, my friend
I've seen the skies and there is no end
           
as a butterfly, I sometimes flew too high
couldn't resist them clear blue skies
how I was free, the sun was showing me my way
and I feel accomplished, though I only lived for a day
 
                              as a bee, I was the mean one
                              the meanest bee of the bee mother's sons
                              always hanging out with a wrong crowd
                              at the time of death, adopted by a rain cloud
                              the darkest rain cloud of them all
 
a little girl tore the wings off that butterfly
now that you can't fly, do you want to die
I don't mind if I do, I don't mind if I do, I don't mind if I do
I lived a lifetime in a day, a lifetime in a day
 
a lifetime in a day
a lifetime in a day
a lifetime in a day
