Butcher And The Butterfly Lyrics

There is a finger missing on my right hand

A butchers hand in a butterfly wing span

The sky hangs on a thread as I paint the white picket fence red

Said am I alive or am I dead?



I caught a raingbow tear in her sunset smile

I told the broken bird of my unborn child

These blood-stained walls in her head

I found my girl bleeding in his bed



The angels cried in butterfly red

(the butcher and the butterfly)

her wings are torn my baby's dead

(the butcher and the butterfly)



I put my girl in the butchers hand

She is my curse cried fireman Sam

Heaven down below inscribed her name

My baby girl's lost in amongst these flames



The angels cried in butterfly red

(The butcher and the butterfly)

Her wings are torn my baby's dead

(The butcher and the butterfly)



Oh heaven help me what have I done?

I kissed the daughter of my unborn son



Heaven down below inscribed her name

Let heaven, heaven rain down again



The angels cried in butterfly red

(The butcher and the butterfly)

Her wings are torn my baby's dead

(The butcher and the butterfly)

The angels cried in butterfly red

(The butcher and the butterfly)

Her wings are torn my baby's dead

(The butcher and the butterfly)
