Fireflies |
| Jesus lying in his mother’s arms |
| Is a photon released from a dying star |
| We move through the forest at night |
| The sky is full of momentary light |
| And everything we need is just too far |
| We are photons released from a dying star |
| We are fireflies a child has trapped in a jar |
| And everything is distant as the stars |
| I am here and you are where you are |
| We have lived a long time here in the forest |
| We lie beneath the heaps of leaves |
| We are partial to this partial light |
| We cannot sleep and fear our dreams |
| There is no order here, nothing can be planned |
| We are fireflies trapped in a little boy’s hand |
| And everything is distant as the stars |
| I am here and you are where you are |
| And we lie among our atoms and I speak to you of things |
| And hope sometimes that maybe you will understand |
| There is no order here and there is no middle ground |
| Nothing can be predicted and nothing can be planned |
| A star is just a memory of a star |
| We are fireflies pulsing dimly in the dark |
| We are here and you are where you are |
| We are here and you are where you are |
