lyrics

Why didn’t you just let them go
Was it because of what they know?
A thin disguise
You live the lies
The damage deep inside your soul
A part of you that someone stole
Is hid inside
Tears that have dried
Poison
Seeping in to your thoughts
And words and deeds
Eating at your consciousness
It creeps
Into your eyes
Red fireflies
So you can ask a thousand times
With well rehearsed
And chosen lines
What makes you do
The things you do?
Though people say, “Well I suppose”
You are the only one who knows
Stood in your shoes
What lit the fuse
Poison
Seeping in to your thoughts
And words and deeds
Eating at your consciousness
It creeps
Into your eyes
Red fireflies
