Red Headed Butterflies Lyrics
Calling out for wonders
Everywhere to pour yourselves
Into the flask we hold up high within our hands
Please, go on, continue
To amaze, distilling as we marvel
How its pretty colors now expand
They reach for some pinnacle
Far beyond cynical
Exploding in sound
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't lift off the ground
Calling out to saviors
Everywhere, to launch yourselves
Into the skies far up above our boring homes
Please, go on, continue
To display a new belief so
Our lonely inner drones fall to sleep
They reach for some pinnacle
Far beyond cynical
Exploding in sound
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't lift off the ground
Calling out for martyrs
Everywhere, perhaps in all of us
There's dreams which I am convinced are of dying
They reach for some pinnacle
Far beyond cynical
Exploding in sound
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't touch your ground
And reach for some miracle
No matter how hysterical
It maybe sounds
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't touch the ground
I foresee a day when all those we've southerned will fix everything
And oh what a great array of relief
All this will bring
All this will bring
Everywhere to pour yourselves
Into the flask we hold up high within our hands
To amaze, distilling as we marvel
How its pretty colors now expand
Far beyond cynical
Exploding in sound
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't lift off the ground
Everywhere, to launch yourselves
Into the skies far up above our boring homes
To display a new belief so
Our lonely inner drones fall to sleep
Far beyond cynical
Exploding in sound
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't lift off the ground
Everywhere, perhaps in all of us
There's dreams which I am convinced are of dying
Far beyond cynical
Exploding in sound
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't touch your ground
No matter how hysterical
It maybe sounds
But if you feel otherwise
Red headed butterflies won't touch the ground
And oh what a great array of relief
All this will bring
All this will bring

Hmm, I really had no idea what this song was about... after typing up the lyrics, I realize it is probably about war, the dangers of blind patriotism and so on (probably about the Iraq war, to be specific). I think that "red headed butterflies" refers to bombs/missiles, something like that.
Stephen Brodsky is a genius...
