Name: Ginseng
Duration: P00H03M11S
Description: ife seems fine…and then unexpectedly, depression takes some of us – many of us. Like a butterfly trapped in a spider’s web; you see life continue without you. You’re stuck; detached, for a while. Then slowly you wriggle free from its clutches and join the world again. Never stop wriggling!

ife seems fine…and then unexpectedly, depression takes some of us – many of us. Like a butterfly trapped in a spider’s web; you see life continue without you. You’re stuck; detached, for a while. Then slowly you wriggle free from its clutches and join the world again. Never stop wriggling!

lyrics

Ginseng, camomile, reiki, tai-chi,
John’s Wort, clarysage, do nothing for me.

Pretty blue butterfly kicks off her boots, flying high, rainbow bound,
Flies through the powder pink cherry tree, fairy-dust wings, they make not a sound.

Pretty blue cotton skies shine from beyond. Framed by sweet blossom bough.
Struggle. Caught fast in a web of fine silk, fairy-dust wings they make not a sound.

Fly, pretty butterfly. Fly to the blue. Flutter your wings and break free.
Pink blossom, delicate, fall to the ground, fairy-dust wings fly loud like the bee.
