Fireflies Lyrics

Are you trying your best

Because you look undressed

I've seen it all before

The rise before the fall

The fireflies bring down

The satellites that burn

The world around you

That the lights, have always been dim

And the fire, has always been fading

I've told you time after time

And the lights, have always been dim

And the fire, has always been fading

So put your dreams to one side

You'll never burn, quite as bright

As the fireflies at night

But if your hopes are in sight

And all your dreams are still alive

Well hold on hold on

Hold on one day your time may come

And the fireflies bring down the satellites

That would dash your dreams and set the world alight

And the words you hear which made you shake in fear

So you're kicking around in the same old ground

And it weighs you down, as you start to drown

See your name in lights, but glass begins to fly

And in time that's when you find.

That the lights, have always been dim

And the fire, has always been fading

I've told you time after time

And the lights, have always been dim

And the fire, has always been fading

So put your dreams to one side

You'll never burn, quite as bright

As the fireflies at night
