Butterfly
If the darkness cleaned our bodies
Only would have guided our souls too
If in death we shared in between the end
Only would have let us know
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
If the dreams that filled us with hope
Only would have outlasted us
If the air that we suffocated with
Only hadn't let us go
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
Only would have guided our souls too
If in death we shared in between the end
Only would have let us know
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever
If the dreams that filled us with hope
Only would have outlasted us
If the air that we suffocated with
Only hadn't let us go
Butterflies in your tummy
Love lasts forever
I have always known
That death lasts forever
Butterflies fly free
Fly free forever

I really like this one. The use of a butterfly was perfect for your theme. Last stanza was a strong ending too.
Very contemplative.

Yeah this is really cool and great topic. So true. Happiness is so hard to achieve and so easy to lose
