Butterfly Girl
Do you only remember the way it used to be?
Full of fear and doubt and insecurity
Taking things that people said to build a web around you
Thinking you'd be safe
In that place

I know you're frightened and your wings are frail
Summer's here and you've outgrown your silky veil
The walls of your cocoon have left no room for breathing
So break free
Break free

Butterfly girl
Don't you know you're beautiful by now?
Too long in hiding
Free to shine girl

Time to spread your wings and show your colors to the world
Butterfly girl

Don't you know that you're a precious miracle?
Suffering transformed to something wonderful
All the things that had you bound before have made you stronger
So trust me and fly
Trust me and fly

Butterfly girl
Don't you know you're beautiful by now?
Too long in hiding
Free to shine girl
Time to spread your wings and show your colors to the world
Butterfly girl

Don't you know you're beautiful?
