Fireflies & Butterflies🦋 by Embers Fire
[Verse 1] I see fireflies in my dreams I see butterflies in my dreams I see fireflies at night I see butterflies in the day All the colors that they bring Make you wonder what comes after When you let them seep into your thoughts Your mind and your cold heart Your mind Your cold heart What comes after [Verse 2] Every day Every second Every minute of a day I forget to look outside Where I want to live beyond this life For once in the night For once in the day When I see butterflies stealing days Fireflies stealing nights I wanna dream higher I wanna fly higher And leave this darkness inside Buried behind my past forever Ask me why or how I got this far How did I get this far Questions come easier than seeing the truth Standing right here in front of you [Chorus] So I wanna see fireflies I wanna see butterflies Feel the morning light at the end of every night See the butterflies Feel the morning light When I sleep in the dark corner of my mind When I drift through moments like black and white Maybe there's still color I don't feel the urge to fill in all the colors I just see the beauty in the colors they carry Even at night Even in the day And I want to be free Like they seem to be I want to be free They still feel so far away But every step I take brings them closer to me Closer to me Closer to me [Outro] And maybe not today Maybe not tonight But I know I'll find my way to that morning light Maybe not today Maybe not tonight I'll see the firefly I'll see the butterfly And when that day arrives I'll finally know why I don't need to see the whole way I only need to see the next step One step closer And maybe the light was never that far away I'll see the fireflies I'll see the butterflies And I'll keep walking toward the light
