Butterfly Wings - A Shinobu Song ʚɞ ───────────────────────────────── ʚɞ Lyrics: **[Verse 1]** I greet the morning with a smile, A gentle voice, a graceful bow. The garden stirs beneath the sun— How lovely everything looks now. I keep my footsteps light and neat, My sleeves don’t brush the dust below. You’d never guess how sharp a thought Can hide behind a smile so soft. **[Pre-Chorus]** There are things I never say. There are feelings tucked away. If I speak them, will they sting? So I let my laughter sing. **[Chorus]** I flutter lightly through the night, A little wing in silver light. I smile as if my heart is clear, And keep my truest thoughts from here. The wisteria blooms, the shadows fall— I may be small, but I can stand tall. With a quiet step and a bright disguise, I hide the storm behind my eyes. **[Verse 2]** I learned that strength can take new forms; Not every blade must strike with force. A measured breath, a careful hand, Can turn the tide and change its course. A drop of poison, swift and sure, A flash of purple in the dark. I don’t need to be the strongest— I only need to find my mark. **[Pre-Chorus]** There are things I never say. There are debts I can’t repay. But I remember every name, And I carry every flame. **[Chorus]** I flutter lightly through the night, A little wing in silver light. I smile as if my heart is clear, And keep my truest thoughts from here. The wisteria blooms, the shadows fall— I may be small, but I can stand tall. With a quiet step and a bright disguise, I hide the storm behind my eyes. **[Verse 3]** Sometimes I hear her laugh again, So warm it seems to fill the air. She’d tell me not to lose my smile, To keep some kindness to spare. I try to wear her hope with grace, Though anger has its place in me. A smile can be a promise, too: I’ll make the world she wished to see. **[Bridge]** Oh, sister, if you’re watching, I hope you know I tried. I kept your gentle way of seeing Even when I hurt inside. I’m not as calm as I appear. I’m not untouched by grief. But beneath these butterfly wings, I still believe. **[Verse 4]** So let them think I’m sweet and mild, A small and harmless little thing. They won’t see the sharp resolve That waits beneath the wing. I’ll laugh, I’ll tease, I’ll tilt my head, I’ll make the darkest demon pause. Then I’ll move before they understand The quiet danger in my cause. **[Final Chorus]** I flutter lightly through the night, A little wing with fearless flight. I smile, though sorrow lingers near, And face the things I used to fear. The wisteria blooms, the shadows fall— I may be small, but I can stand tall. With a quiet step and a steady gaze, I’ll carry her light through the darkest days. **[Outro]** A butterfly crosses the garden wall. The evening breeze stirs the flowers. I smile. And keep moving.
