Firefly

I’m sorry that I find your bickering so funny
but tell me just what you’ve accomplished
I don’t think you understand how happy I am
I’ve done what I’ve always wanted
what I’ve always wanted
You see, you can’t that away from me

This complacency is so sweet
Gliding through the motions of kissing your feet
I’m fine all by myself
So take your stance

If I reclined into everything right now, I’d melt, just close my eyes and slip away
You see because you have no hold on me

So I’m sorry that I walked away and laugh
but I’m so proud that I won’t let you make me feel daft
Do you hear the symphony in me
It’s telling you that right now I’m free

You can crash through my room
But I won’t be able to hear you
You can scream all you want
But the stress is staying inside you

Next think you know, I’ll be in the forest,
when it’s black at night
so warm inside I’ll be a firefly

you would say
“I don’t care about the world
our life’s an adventure
we’ll fight it together
whatever happened
it wouldn’t matter
because we would drive away and laugh.”
