Firefly

Tripped on a wire
Ask me, tell me how I'm feeling
Stranded by the light of the evening
Watching the flies
Surrounded by fire inside this season
Blinded by the light of the evening
Catch the clock and cut the hands of time
(Welcome to my life)
Seek the space to stop and soothe my troubled mind
(Fireflies float into my skies)
Uninspired and feeling life is leaving too soon
Under the light of the moon
Under the lights of June
Hung on a wire
Save me, show me all I'm thinking
Strangled by the logic of treason
I don't mind
Lying in this field without a reason
I'm still blinded by the light of the evening
Catch the clock and cut the hands of time
(Welcome to my world)
Seek the space to stop and soothe my troubled mind
(Fireflies float into my soul)
Uninspired and feeling life is leaving too soon
Under the light of the moon
Under the lights of June
I climb to the top of my soul again
I look at the world and it's new again
Is this all a dream I'm living in
Under the lights of June
Catch the clock and cut the hands of time
(Welcome to my life)
Seek the space to stop and soothe my troubled mind
(Fireflies float into my skies)
Uninspired and feeling life is leaving too soon
(Fireflies float into my soul)
So feel the shock - set free the hands of time
Under the light of the moon
Under the lights of June
Under the light of the moon
Under the light of the moon
Under the lights of June
