Lyrics: 

Standing on the edge
Look down
It’s beautiful
When there’s no one else around
You’re letting go
Don’t let your light go out
They’re beautiful
I don’t know why
I tear the wings off butterflies
Punch a hole right through the sky
So I can climb right out tonight
Where does your compass guide you now
The great unknown
All the dreamers spinning ‘round
Dizzy and falling down
Don’t let your light go out
They’re beautiful
I don’t know why
I tear the wings off butterflies
Punch a hole right through the sky
So I can climb right out tonight
Don’t let yourself get comfortable
You might fall asleep
Jumping’s frightening
Wonderful
The water’s deep
Don’t let your love go out
I don’t know why
I tear the wings off butterflies
Punch a hole right through the sky
So I can climb right out tonight
Beautiful
I don’t know why
I tear the wings off butterflies
Punch a hole right through the sky
So I can climb right out tonight
