I am suffering tremendous pain
Everything is wrenching at my brain
I curl up into a little ball,
no one can hurt me at all.
I hide in my corner and want to die.
Sit within my cocoon,
so many tears I cry
Before I know it, I’m a beautiful butterfly
Released from my previous and pain-filled skin
I thought my horrible world had come to an end
In this tragic world I must stay
Until the day comes I will fly away
