Lyrics

Gather round children, sit, come near For this tale I will tell is one of danger A cautionary tale you will want to hear Come, come closer I am no stranger This happened when I was quite young like you In a far off land where I used to live On that side the grass was green and the sky was blue I was a happy child, with not a care to give In all this beauty of this place I hold dear Where all my plans and hopes were working When I did not know that I needed to fear There was a secret there lurking Innocent and sweet, nobody could tell The evil of the creature when it came to town Soon enough we were under its spell That's when everything started to go down I woke up one day with my eyes swollen red My skin was scratched up and tender I could hardly even get up out of bed The reason for this I could not remember I stumbled outside and to my great horror The creature had shed its disguise It hovered there ugly enough to break any mirror It looked unlike other butterflies It was a pure shiny gold It was iridescence alight From its wings grains of sand rolled And glittered brightly in flight The glitter sand butterfly! Gasped the town in disgust Up from them rose a cry As their lungs breathed its dust As we watched this horrid thing flap Bits came off every which way Into eyes and noses and every little gap Until no one could tell the night from the day As the glitter sand butterfly sparkled in the sun My father bent his head toward me He whispered to me to run And so away I did flee I left behind my family, my friends, my life I ran for miles and miles I wept with loss and with grief As grains of glitter and sand trailed behind me in piles I never came back to my old town again I had to start over in a new place That terror of the butterfly sat on me like a stain But I never let it show on my face Dear children of mine, be careful you see This thing could find me at any time Please stay young and wild and carefree But remember please, this story of mine
