  • Heaven ablaze in our eyes
    We're standing still in time
    The blood on our hands is the wine
    We offer as sacrifice

    Come on, and show them your love
    Rip out the wings of a butterfly
    For your soul, my love
    Rip out the wings of a butterfly
    For your soul

    This endless mercy mile
    We're crawling side by side
    With hell freezing over in our eyes
    Gods kneel before our crime

    Come on lets show, them your love
    Rip out the wings of a butterfly
    For your soul, my love
    Rip out the wings of a butterfly
    For your soul
    (Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
    Don’t let go
    (Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
    For your soul

    Come on, and show them your love
    Rip out the wings of a butterfly
    For your soul, my love
    Rip out the wings of a butterfly
    For your soul
    (Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
    Don’t let go
    (Rip out the wings of a butterfly)

    For your soul Writer/s: Ville Hermanni Valo
