Fireflies

Fireflies, they give me light
Kept in a jar like a small sun
I collect them every night
Watch them go out one by one

Cut out your tongue little fairy
I will rip off your wings
The curiosity of a child
Will pull you apart

Destroy you to see what you are made of
Made of
To know is to love

Amniotic tears soak the baby's cheek
The fairy runs and hides
Her scars have not yet healed
He watches closely as she dies

The incisions dripping fluid
A life takes a life apart
The parasites, they stain my vision
Thoughts and entrails all spill out

Destroy you to see what you are made of
Made of
To know is to love
