arockalypse and the amazing trans-metropolitans - fireflies lyrics

[verse 1]
we’re cursing, whirling
wheezing and curling up
we smell like formaldehyde
but you, my little fireflies, you’re not like us
our thoughts drip
we’re waves against the ghost ship
and so it goes, and so we go
little ghost, you can be impossible

[chorus]
we know it’s a maze, and we see in your face
that you’re stilted and smothered
and carefully covered
so can you rise, rise up
aw, can you rise, rise up
pretty fireflies?

[verse 2]
are you luxuriating?
are you accelеrated?
there’s a still lifе whispering
can you hear, or are you deaf?
we are collectively infected
but we love our imperfections
yeah, we’re mono, we’re stereo, elemental
we are chemical
[chorus]
we know it’s not safe, but what is?
we’re displaced and still sleeping in gutters
come all b+st+rds and lovers
we’re gonna rise, rise up
yeah we’re gonna rise, rise up
yeah we’re gonna rise, rise up
pretty fireflies, come rise up, come rise up

[post+chorus]
can you seize this one fleeting moment?
it’s here
can you hold it ’til i get there?
you see, the tighter you hold it
the brighter the moment hangs in the air

[verse 3]
i got some zen kicking in
you’re mortified
a little radical and slightly alkaline
is not good enough?
we know who told you that
yeah, one day they’ll come and get you too, man
so won’t you come and rise?
you see, there’s nothing but this gravity
have the last word if you must
here they come
ding ding
your number’s up
[chorus]
you won’t make that peace with yourself
but just face that there’s nothing more other
than one to another
so come and rise up, rise up
aw can you rise, rise up
pretty fireflies?

[post+chorus]
can you seize this one fleeting moment?
it’s here
can you hold it ’til i get there?
you see, the tighter you hold it
the brighter the moment hangs in the air

[outro]
did we make your souls flip once
make your bones crack
make your heart skip? (thump thump)
did you think you helped us out
as we were holding out
fighting for things we cared about?
we traveled time for you
we thought out loud to you
do you remember how? do you?
and did you even know just what we meant
when we said we only ever wanted just to
wake up dead next to you?
