Spray Paint Butterflies and Grey Matter Calligraphy

By Bella Butchery

{think acoustic}


It seems too late
To open her eyes
Writing in Grey matter calligraphy
To everyone’s surprise


So lets take a sigh of relief
And I will give you something to believe
Lay your head
And look around
The worst is over
For now


It seems too late
For me to do something for her
Spray painting butterflies
For her the pain is over


So lets take a sigh of relief
And I will give you something to believe
Lay your head
And look around
The worst is over
For now


And all she wanted to say was…..

Fuck you….

Flying miles away…..
I dream of your fall
We write in grey matter calligraphy
With handguns against the wall

    This would definently go along well with music. It played a nice tune in my head. It also painted a picture and had a good train of thought. Nice.

    Do you have music yet? If not, I'd love to take a crack at it.

    ... ... ... wow ... dark, with hidden meaning, yet with an air of lightness, as if I watched a grisly scene through a remote camera, documentary style. It rather reminded me of clowns, for some reason, with guns, and a bunch of screaming children lined up along the wall.

    ...adding thoughts... like watching a grisly scene in the stuttering jerking old time film style, with words appearing between scenes, and soft music playing behind it. There, that's what I meant.
