Butterflies denied

(Verse 1) She feels the rush when he walks in, A spark beneath her fragile skin. Her heart beats loud, it skips, it sways, Yet fear still whispers, "Stay away."

(Pre-Chorus) She’s danced with love, she’s seen it fade, Left with echoes, torn and frayed. Now every step, a trembling flight, A war between the dark and light.

(Chorus) Butterflies beneath her skin, A fire she won’t let begin. She wants to fall, she wants to stay, But fear keeps pulling her away. Love’s so close, yet out of reach, Like waves retreating from the beach. She feels it all but won’t believe, Too scared to trust, too scared to breathe.

(Verse 2) He speaks her name, she turns to stone, Afraid to let herself be known. His touch could melt the walls she’s made, But walls are safe, and love can fade.

(Pre-Chorus) She’s danced with love, she’s seen it fade, Left with echoes, torn and frayed. Now every step, a trembling flight, A war between the dark and light.

(Chorus) Butterflies beneath her skin, A fire she won’t let begin. She wants to fall, she wants to stay, But fear keeps pulling her away. Love’s so close, yet out of reach, Like waves retreating from the beach. She feels it all but won’t believe, Too scared to trust, too scared to breathe.

(Bridge) Maybe love won’t break her heart, Maybe this time it’s a start. But how can she begin to fly, When fear still tells her not to try?

(Outro) She feels the rush when he walks in, A love she longs for deep within. But love is wild, and hearts can break— So she lets the butterflies escape.
