Fireflies |
You… looked just like my mother |
Did when she was 19 |
Not afraid to die |
I… started planning our future |
You were just 19 |
Still a firefly |
You got… terrible vision |
You shoulda seen I was leavin' |
When I first appeared |
I… got bit by the footlights |
I got caught in the headlights |
in any place but here |
Never say |
You’ll never leave |
Cuz you’ll never know til you try |
In a jar |
fireflies |
Only last for one night |
Only last for one night |
Trains roll… like gamblers in slow mo Tryin’to find good luck |
When they couldn’t find love |
Oh yeah, and I’m… gonna sleep on the train tracks |
It’s gonna be a peaceful night |
Then it’s gonna get rough |
Never say |
You’ll never leave |
Cuz you’ll never know til you try |
In a jar |
fireflies |
Only last for one night |
Only last for one night |
I must have had a reason for leavin' |
— Not one I could see |
I must have had a reason for leavin' |
— Must have been me |
— Must have been me… |
You… looked just like my mother |
Did when she was 19 |
Not afraid to die |
For the last time… I’m not your mother |
And I was only 19 |
I’m still a firefly |
