Fireflies Lyrics

Out of breath

With borrowed words

Adopted in torment

Staccato in verse

Inverting emotion

Just to belong

King of salvation

Where did I go wrong

Where did I go wrong

Run

I thought we'd run away

I thought that you'd be safe

I'm watching you fade away

Hide

You said we'd hide away

All the same

I'm watching you fade

You said we'd be safe

While I'm

Out of breath

With borrowed words

Adopted in torment

Legato in verse

Inverting emotion

Just to belong

King of salvation

Where did I go wrong

Where did I go wrong

King of salvation

Where did I go wrong

Fireflies

Fire flies to the sky

Fire flies to the sky

When the lies of the liar

Fire flies to the sky

When the lies of the liar

Corrupts our desire

Their ashes descend to the throne

While I'm

Out of breath

With borrowed words

Adopted in torment

Legato in verse

Inverting emotion

Just to belong

King of salvation

Where did I go wrong

Where did I go wrong

King of salvation

Where did I go wrong

Don't leave me

Don't you see

He wants us

He wants us to bleed

So we'll believe

This could never be enough

That we deserve a world unloved

Well I say

We make our stand

We fight until the end

I say I'm

I say I'm

Out of breath

With borrowed words

Adopted in torment

Staccato in verse

Inverting emotion

Just to belong

King of salvation

Where did I go wrong
