Lyrics
Firefly
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Slowly uncovered, from a shallow grave of amber leaves
Wind blows revealing a frozen tear upon my face
Black crows are guarding, a grave up to now that's had no name
It's almost like they knew this could never be my resting place
Cause I see your life, through bloodshot eyes
The smile you see, not the pain it hides
Trust the fool, he'll never shine like a firefly
I'm healing from last results, compromise in summersaults
I'm moving on, I'm gonna shine like a firefly
The sunlight, warm me and penetrate these broken bones
Windows are frozen, they lock me out of a life I know
And my eyes are bleeding, cause I learn to see in the blackest night
Cause once a king always a king
Cause I see your life, through bloodshot eyes
The smile you see, not the pain it hides
Trust the fool, he'll never shine like a firefly
I'm healing from last results, compromise in summersaults
I'm moving on, I'm gonna shine like a firefly
