Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Fell into a curious thriller
Could not become a butterfly...
As I killed the caterpillar
I started to end my life
Fell into a curious thriller
Could not become a butterfly
To choose you now into my life
Wanna be your butterfly
Smile, smile, smile at me
hold me tight and I feel free
Smile, smile, smile at me
hold me tight and I feel free
To choose you now into my life
Wanna be your butterfly
Smile at me
and I feel free
to choose you now into my life
wanna be your butterfly
Smile at me
and I feel free
to choose you now into my life
wanna be your butterfly
The lyrics to Parov Stelar's song "Charleston Butterfly" tell a story of transformation, destruction, and hope. The song begins with the lines "As I killed the caterpillar / Fell into a curious thriller / Could not become a butterfly..." The singer expresses regret over their action of killing the caterpillar, which has prevented the insect from undergoing metamorphosis and transforming into a butterfly. The lyrics indicate that the singer, in some way, has experienced a similar sense of stagnation or inability to transform.
The chorus of the song reveals a desire for change and transformation, as the singer sings, "To choose you now into my life / Wanna be your butterfly / Smile, smile, smile at me / hold me tight and I feel free." The person the singer desires, represented by the evocative image of the butterfly, acts as a source of freedom and transformation. The singer longs for this figure to "smile" at them and set them free, both literally and metaphorically. The lyrics thus suggest that love and connection have the power to inspire positive change and growth.
Overall, the song presents a message of hope and transformation, emphasizing the potential for change even in the face of obstacles and mistakes. The image of the butterfly serves as a powerful symbol of growth and evolution, suggesting that even when things seem stagnant or bleak, there is always the potential for transformation and positive change.

Enjoy the silence in my mind (?)
Flowing to my destination (?)
