1.In the cocoon called “you”
2.I’ve been painstakingly weaving
3.For the day when I’ll leave this place
4.With the most beautiful wings5.
6.Overflowing tears have taught me
7.If I am to take flight, it’s now
8.Adieu, adieu, adieu9.
10.Ignorance is bliss, they say
11.But I’ve felt the sting of your needle in my heart
12.Crafting wings, setting me free
13.Leaving behind the empty shell, the irony14.
15.Just crying softly
16.Doesn’t suit these days at all
17.Thanks to that, as you can see
18.I’m a butterfly dancing through life19.
20.Saying “no” requires much more courage
21.Than saying “yes” ever will
22.But if in that moment, every moment
23.The world were to change24.
25.People shouldn’t give up on happiness
26.On pain, on sorrow
27.Adieu, adieu, adieu28.
29.Let’s stop clinging
30.To fading memories
31.With every casual flutter of our wings
32.Let’s drastically change the direction of the future33.
34.I’m coming back, yes, I’m coming back
35.Passing through, yes, right through there
36.I’m coming back, yes, I’m coming back
37.Passing through, right there38.
39.I’ll return, I’ll pass through there
40.Letting the black and yellow freedom flutter
41.I’ll hatch, I’ll become a butterfly
42.Mixing poison into a spoonful of scales43.
44.If it’s such a precious opportunity
45.I want to give a stylish retaliation
46.So give it to me straight and strong
47.From today, I am a butterfly dancing through life
