Firefly

FIREFLY

Burned down, I rose up
Saw the firefly moving in
The mild attack, little did I know
I was an easy prey

Before the break of day
The leathered wing found a way
To take it back
To take it back

I thought I heard it say
When my weight was pushed around
I'm here to leave you be
I'm here to leave you be

It left a glow in me
told me who I was expected to be
The electric light
O don't know what it's doing to me

And when I called it names
It said it had been waiting for me
To leave me be
To leave me be

Now there's a yellow in my eyes
There is an opening, oh mighty life
Enough to take this far
To take this far

Now there's a beach up ahead
Where the mire lies still for them
Who told the truth, who told the truth

I got my back to the tease
I got my mouth wrapped around my lie
There is a turn up ahead
Let the fire be what it is

And when my mouth drink the sea
The wave will break down on me
The barren hill
Here I will tell the truth

And from a mile away
I can hear it thundering
It's here to leave me be
It's here to leave me be
