Fireflies by Mark Geary Lyrics

I was born a sigh my life
A lonely little lie
Help me see the paths concealed
Colossal in the lie

At night we watch the fireflies
Courageously we learn to lie

All the leaves the autumn freeze
Are running out of light
Afraid, in awe all
What faith in store
Of promises, come on, come out

May you always be the rising star

Safe for weeks, the prophet speaks
With prophecies no one believes
It’s not your fault, the curtain call
Abandoned on your knees
At night we watch the fireflies
Courageously, we learn to lie

I was born a sigh
My life, a lonely little lie
May you always be the rising star

All aboard, the captain calls
For honor we are here tonight
It’s not your cause, the brave men call
It’s better not to try
Was it only for your charity?
