Butterfly On A Battlefield (Album Version) Lyrics

Our blissful ignorance, a comfortable haze

The wolf not far from the door

A line is drawn and the challenge is laid

There's no peace anymore

Sparks fly, the powder is dry

Big shock, we come undone

Blind colours, the black and the white

We aim and fire our guns

There's a flag that's flying, it's tattered and burned

And through all this violence, what have we learned

Through the smoke and fire (There's) a glimmer of hope

There's an angel singing

A butterfly on a battlefield

We lower our guns and our eyes fill with tears

We see invisible lines

The media machine starts droning once more

Its rhetoric fills our minds

Lonely, my bothers in arms

Fool's war, nobody wins

Show me the reason we fight

But still the battle begins

There's a flag that's flying, it's tattered and burned

And through all this violence (Tell me) what have we learned

Through the smoke and fire, a glimmer of hope

There's a new beginning

A butterfly on a battlefield

Sparks fly, the dust burns our eyes

Bad news for everyone

Show me the reason we die

We aim our guns and we fire

There's a flag that's flying, it's tattered and burned

And through all this violence (Tell me) what have we learned

Through the smoke and fire (There's) a glimmer of hope

There's an angel singing

A butterfly on a battlefield

A butterfly on a battlefield

A butterfly on a battlefield

A butterfly on a battlefield
