I've fallen apart, a million little times I've battled my heart, like storms that won't subside
I lost track of all the time I wasted away, and all the time the sky was grey
And here I am, I'm not looking back on everything you can't change, I'm living in brighter days
I'm chasing butterflies, not fears, I felt my whole life, I got sick of that feeling, I couldn't stand the pain
I was knocked down too many times, every battle taught me to fight
I have patched up my wings, from everyone that has hurt me, now I keep my head up high
These days I'm chasing butterflies, butterflies
I've never been better, and I don't feel ashamed
I avoided my failures, and now I know you don't always have to win first place
I put too much into every loss, I spent my time, I paid the cost
And here I am, I'm looking back on every mistake
These days I'm chasing butterflies, not fears, I felt my whole life, got sick of feeling, I couldn't stand the pain
I was knocked down too many times, every battle taught me to fight
I have patched up my wings, from everyone that has hurt me, now I keep my head up high
These days I'm chasing butterflies
I'm chasing this feeling of finally being free
From the monsters that hurt me, the serpents who scorned me, I'm living for what I believe
These days I'm chasing butterflies, not fears, I felt my whole life, I got sick of that feeling, I couldn't stand the pain
I was knocked down too many times, every battle taught me to fight
I have patched up my wings, from everyone that has hurt me, now I keep my head up high
These days I'm chasing butterflies
