Papillon

shed this protective shield abandon the calling
this time's a second chance there is no point in stalling brace yourself from impact
it's only up from here laughing at opposition
things aren't what they appear stretch my wings to fly you can fall on me awake from my slumbe ready to start anew a part of the same mold we're not the chosen few laid to rest in a coffin losing this mortal coil
a new seed has been planted rebirth beneath the soil array of sound that form colors before my eyes it makes me see my life in a more perfect light emerge from this safety so brave and vulnerable standing on our ideals to prove we're capable as others fail and perish we'll set our goals in sight a collective built on trust our ambitions take flight
