[VERSE 1 – Male Clean Vocal, Broken Tone] It feels like no one cares That this heart breaks every day I’m drowning in the silence Waiting for the agony to fade These tears keep falling faster Like storms, I can’t escape The sorrow fills the empty rooms Inside this hollow place [PRE-CHORUS – Building / Sing-Scream] It takes what lives inside of me And buries it beneath the sands of time Every memory, every piece I saved Gets left behind… [CHORUS – Huge Chester-style Emotional Scream/Singing + Female Harmonies] Let it fade Let it decay Let it drift into another place Take this pain Take yesterday Give me a reason I should stay Won’t it go away So I can finally see the light Where is the firefly… That used to guide me through the night? [VERSE 2 – Heavier / Nu Metal Groove] I hear the screaming in my head Voices buried underneath my skin Fighting wars nobody sees Against the darkness creeping in [BREAKDOWN – Deep Growls + Female Screams Answering] (male growl) HORRIFIED BY THE SCREAMS IN MY HEAD (female scream) I CAN’T ESCAPE THEM (male) SHOW ME THE ROAD (female clean) I’m still searching… (male growl) BRING BACK THE LIGHT [FINAL CHORUS – Full Band / Orchestra] Where is the firefly That carried me through the cold? Where is the firefly That saved me when I was alone? Please shine your light… (music drops out) So I can see… (female whisper) “Where this road leads…”
