Kandyland--Brokencyde

My butterfly, I'm happy when you're with me.
You're everything I need, and everything I see.
These broken wings, will guide our love through the sky.
And take us away from these nightmares...
And these broken wings, they make you taste so sweet. Candy canes and kisses when I fall asleep.
Rainbows and wishes, you take me away.
To another place, so far away.
So far away.
SO FAR AWAY!!! My butterfly, I'm happy when you're with me.
You're everything I need, and everything I see.
These broken wings, will guide our love through the sky.
And take us away from these nightmares...
And these broken wings, they make you taste so sweet. Candy canes and kisses when I fall asleep.
Rainbows and wishes, you take me away.
To another place, so far away.
So far away.
SO FAR AWAY!!! My butterfly, I'm happy when you're with me.
You're everything I need, and everything I see.
These broken wings, will guide our love through the sky.

You're everything I need, and everything I see.
These broken wings, will guide our love through the sky.
And take us away from these nightmares(x2)...






Brokencyde has always been at the fore-front of lesser-known scream-o bands. Breath Carolina, Kill Paradise, and Medic Droid could also be placed into this category. The song "Kandyland" is a metaphor based on love and loss in life. While most songs by Brokencyde are about drinking, lust, and drugs, Kandyland has a lighter melodic feel. Se7en, Mikl, Phat J, and Antz composed the tune using a synthesizer and there signature "crunk screams" and back up rap courtesy of Mikl and Se7en.

Se7en compares his love to a butterfly, unique, beautiful, mysterious. The broken wings may symbolize the lies. The nightmares are truly reality.
