Firef'Lies
My room is filled with fireflies
I like to watch them shine
They make my night brighter
I enjoy the sight of the way the climb the walls
Pretending to see luminescent waterfalls
In the mornings i open the window so they can get some air
I know they understand me as we express the same despair
Only seen when wanted to be only imagined as something else
But for what reason must it be i wish I could barrow their wings
And they could fly away with me
In the night they wander back so they can fill my empty room
Unlike the fireflies I can never be seen as majestic waterfalls
All I can be is empty in my mind and behind glowing morbid walls
