Firefly, Firefly,
Why do you shine your light so bright?
Is it just to try and wake me?
Is it just to try and shake me?
Firefly, Firefly,
Always out of reach, you fly
Taunting me to come outside
Taunting me to go and die
Firefly, Firefly,
You're my little firefly
The voices in my head, a sign
That you've done what you think is right
Firefly, Firefly,
Remind me of my darkest nights
You fly so far away, a sign
That I will never fly as high
Firefly, Firefly,
Although you fly high in the sky,
I am stuck with chains so tight
Of self-hate, self-worth, so I can't fly
Firefly, Firefly,
Let me fly high in the sky
With broken wings and chains so tight
I'll grant their every wish when I die.
