Violents
Fireflies
After the ball dropped on New Years Eve
I'm barefoot and running down Swallow Street
My head is bleeding, I'm unaware
I start blacking out, and I'm losing air

I thought that I'd grow up and grow out of this
I fall in love like a nervous tick
I gave you the one thing you could not have earned
The years of my youth you can not return

The only thing I know for sure
This has to do with you and her

You wrote this script, I lived in it, so take a bow
And look me in the eye and say you're proud
My captor and my rescue, you played them well
Tonight I will escape all by myself

As I lie down in the frozen street
I see that your shadow lies next to me
This memory comes from a clear summer night
There's an ocean of fireflies swimming in the sky

I'm dead or dreaming, I don't care
But leave my body resting here
You wrote this script, I lived in it, so take a bow
And look me in the eye and say you're proud
My captor and my rescue, you played them well
Tonight I will escape all by myself

Life moves slowly and suddenly
Life moves slowly and suddenly

A lifetime ago, in the blink of an eye
I sat down beside you on a clear summer night
I start letting go and concede to the sky
And breathe in and out just a couple more times

Life moves slowly and suddenly
