Firefly

Firefly - by Shonali Bhowmik

Firefly, what do you tell yourself to light the sky
While no one sees you?
Firefly, how do you keep us high
When no one sees you?

Everyone's in their seats. Holding on to tomorrow
From the inside out, sand keeps falling
Sparkles in the rain

Ooooh, I hear you coming
Ooooh, you're never late

Time took notice of your absence
You laughed
Now you move with the air

Firefly, what do tell yourself to light the sky
While no one sees you?
Firefly, how do you keep us high
When no one sees you?

You made it easy
Our tears filled your glass
We braced walls, they opened your jar
Farewell sweet one

Everyones in their seats holding on to tomorrow
Everyone's in their seats holding on to tomorrow
From the outside in, do you see us disappear?
Everyone's in their seats holding on to tomorrow

Firefly, what do tell yourself to light the sky
While no one sees you?
Firefly, how do you keep us high
When no one sees you?

Firefly, what do tell yourself to light the sky
When the city's burning?
Firefly, how do you keep us high
When no one sees you?
Firefly, how do you keep us high
When no one sees you?
